Can anyone help ? Refracta2usb unable to select drive

Postby Skap » Sat Mar 12, 2016 3:46 pm

Hi there,
I am running Kali linux. I want to make an updated bootable USB of my current config (in VirtualBox).
I successfully created a snapshot and followed the instructions to set up the drive : zeroing, install-mrb.

After that done i can't seem to be able to start refracta2usb (newest version from source forge); i get this error message :
" You did not select a USB device. Rescan to select one. "

The problem persisted after reboot and google didn't return any results but an automount issue.
Unfortunatly, i can't disable the option in an installed Kali (correct me if i am wrong).

Are there any solution to this particular problem ?

I don't know kali, but there should be a way to disable automounting. It's usually somewhere in the desktop settings. What desktop environment (or window manager) are you using?

dd should work unless you disabled isohybrid in refractasnapshot.conf. Do you get an error message when you try to boot?
