Hello everyone,

I am trying to install kali linux on an external hardrive.

I have an HDD of 1TB (Toshiba Canvio Basics USB 3.0). I took the last iso of kali linux (kali-linux-2020.1-live-amd64.iso) and I am trying to install the virtual machine on that toshiba hard drive. I am doing that on my macbook pro.

When I run the installation it works fine until I reach the step of disk detection. It do not find it. Instead, I only got a long list of drivers. I am supposed to pick one of them. I can select the options "continu without driver" but the installation get blocked because there is no mount point selected.

I created a partition of 70 GB, with all the file system formats I could, including FAT and ExtFat. On my macbook pro the hdd is detected, I can use the HDD without any problem. But for some reason the installer don't.

I am running out of ideas, so I would really appreciate it if some one can help me!

Thanks in advance,
