This tutorial was heavily inspired by this tutorial with proper fixes for Kali. A target USB stick, SD card or an SSD external drive where you’re going to install Kali (16GB and USB 3.0 recommended).Mac OS only recognizes HFS+ partitions along with some files needed for it.


The problem when you perform a Kali installation on a USB stick is that Kali partitions the disk with the VFAT file system. This is not intended to perform a Live Kali installation with persistence. This tutorial is for everyone who wants a USB stick with a full Kali installation to use with your Mac(s).
