Write error creating bootable USB in Kali Linux 2019.4
by new2linux1234 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4W9CY)
I have a Windows laptop but after a failed experiment it can no longer boot Windows. I have a Kali Linux bootable USB which I am using right now. I am trying to use Kali Linux to make a bootable USB containing ElementaryOS or Mint Linux. I have tried using several different USB sticks. I don't have easy access to another computer. Secure boot is turned off in the UEFI settings.
I have tried using Etcher which immediately returns an error when I try to write to the USB.
I have also tried the command "dd if=<pathway to linux iso"> of=/dev/usb bs=512k". The operating system claims the write was successful. The USB was able to boot to a command line but returned an error before reaching a graphical interface.
