Did you not even try updating your APT cache (and the rest of Kali) before complaining of broken or missing packages?

apt-get update && apt-get upgrade
apt-get dist-upgrade && reboot

Thank you for explaining that to me. In the decade I have been using various Linux distros I have never heard/read that before; however I use Linux for programming and web design mostly and...

Exactly. And http://docs.kali.org/general-use/kali-linux-sources-list-repositories shows that deb-src is in the sources.list file by default. It specifically uses

This seems to be my exact same issue as well. As far as I can tell, only USB 3.0 will not boot - and I know I'm writing to the USB at a slow enough speed that the image is not being corrupted upon...

I have previously used the same USB to install other distros. However, Now there is USB option in the BIOS or Boot Menu. What is going on here? I'm attempting the new Kali 2.0
