I’m running etcher on a M1 MacBook Pro and I’m trying to flash Kali Linux to a USB Drive but every time it makes it all the way finished and then shows a failed to flash error and the details say failed to unmount and its an invalid drive. I’m kinda new to this so I’m not really sure what to do to fix it.
Any help is greatly appreciated🙂
Hello, we apologize for the problem caused. Did you try with another drive?
Also, what version of the macOS and balenaEtcher are you running? It may be helpful if you check the contents of the developer tools - can be opened by pressing CMD+OPT+I - and paste the errors here.
Marc’s comment about trying another stick to eliminate the USB issue is also worthwhile.
I haven’t tried other usb sticks but I tried with a class 10 SD card I have.
I’m running macOS version 11.1 and etcher version 1.5.115
Could you also post any logs or errors you see in the developer tools console as described above? Thanks!
Hello there,
we just wanted to check back to see if you had any success with flashing your USB Drive. If not, and like suggested above, open the console (developers tools) in Etcher by pressing CMD+OPT+I - and paste the errors in your reply.
Thanks!
