![]() ![]() Can someone give me an hand to clarify and, maybe, solve? As an example, when I used the VirtualBox VM to install GRUB into my usb device, I was able to boot my Kali distro into the usb device ONLY from that VirtualBox VM. Googling I found a bunch of solutions to install/reinstall GRUB to an usb/external drive, but when I tried them, it seemed they were working only as long as I booted on the same device which I used to install GRUB on the usb drive. The situation was the same as when I tried to boot from my Surface having the distro installed in legacy mode: the Surface didn't recognize the bootable usb drive at all. So I tried to reinstall Kali with EFI mode activated on the VM, but I wasn't lucky this time either and didn't manage to boot the distro on my Surface. All was OK as long as I booted on my pc supporting legacy boot, but when I tried to boot from my Microsoft Surface (which doesn't support legacy boot), I obviously couldn't boot from the external drive. was installed in legacy mode (boot instructions written in the MBR). When I first tried I didn't booted my VM in EFI mode and so the O.S. I tried to install Kali Linux distro to my usb drive according to this video, in which a VirtualBox VM is used to install the O.S. I know that this might be a bad practice, but just wanna give it a try. The idea is to carry the usb drive with me and boot the distros in the computer available at the place where I am at that moment. I'm trying to make a usb drive with two linux distros installed inside. ![]()
