“Probing EDD” error when booting a live OS from a USB drive I'm trying to boot into a Kali Linux live thumb drive on my Mid-2012 MacBook Pro, to partition a secondary internal hdd that has Windows (set up with bootcamp) on it (to install Kali in the new partition). I created the bootable drive by following the instructions from Dual Boot Kali on Mac Hardware. It works at the start, and I chose to boot into Live (amd64) ![When I boot into the thumb drive]( Then, it takes a super long time on this screen (sorry for the blurriness)![enter image description here]( then just goes to a blank screen.![Blank screen]( Is there anything more that I need to do to boot from this? Or should I just wait and maybe it'll boot. (I used `dd`to create the bootable drive from an iso)

According to this thread on Kali Forums)

> Press `Tab` at the boot menu. That allows you to edit the kernel command line. Add `edd=off` to the end of the line and press `Enter` to load it.

As documented in the kernel’s command-line parameters, this disables the BIOS Enhanced Disk Drive Services (EDD).
