    Upgrading Kali Live USB

    Hi everyone!

    So a couple days ago I decided to run a dist-uprade on my Kali Live USB with encrypted persistence.

    Amongst those upgrades, there was a kernel upgrade. Unfortunately, when I rebooted, when Kali tried to open the persistence partition, I ended up with a Kernel Panic.
    After digging a bit, it turns out that the upgrade completely nuked my USB drive. I have around 70% of bad sectors, and it is impossible for me to format it (tried with GParted and windows) or do anything. It's dead.

    So I was wondering, is doing a dist-upgrade on a Kali live a bad idea or did I just have bad luck?

    Thanks!
