I am trying to install Kali Linux as a dual-boot with Windows 7 from my external HDD. The download is from the official site, I used Chrome to download. I am installing kali to a Dell Inspiron Mini 10 netbook with no cd-rom available to use.

I have followed the instructions in http://docs.kali.org/installation/ka...ve-usb-install for installing to my usb drive (a Buffalo external HDD, not stick) and then the instructions at http://docs.kali.org/installation/du...i-with-windows to install from the live disk. I partitioned space on the HDD of the netbook and that went fine, but I am getting stuck at Detect and mount CD-ROM. The error is "No common CD-ROM drive was detected". Being told that I have to load additional drivers for the removable media.

I am given an option to look for the driver module in /dev/ but have had no luck figuring if there is a module that will work. Any ideas?
