I am creating the bootable USB on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (Kernel: 4.18. I then use the dd command (mentioned below) to create the live installer. I tried both MBR and GPT partitioning schemes (although I don't think it matters for the live installer USB). The installation fails with the exact same log for both cases I have cleaned its partition table using sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb bs=2048 count=32 (1 TB) The second is an internal hard disk that I am using with an external SATA to USB 3.0/2.0 cable. I have wiped the entire disk with DBAN (quick option)
i tried several ways to install kali into my 16 gb usb 3.0 pen drive.
