How to solve Kali Linux 2.0 installation issue?

It stops at "Your installation CD-ROM couldn't be mounted. This probably means that the CD-ROM was not in the drive. If so you can insert it an try again." Recorded to a flash drive using Rufus.

Pull out the USB flash drive, click yes, he will write that he did not find it and offer to download drivers from the device, insert the USB flash drive and click yes. profit

If you write the image to a USB flash drive via dd, it should definitely work. For me, once through unetbootin, the flash did not want to become bootable.
sudo dd if=image.iso of=/dev/sdX
warn: will delete the existing partition table (and the partitions themselves with their contents)

What can you expect from a "distribution" that bounces like an asshole from Red Hat to Debian thanks to hacking enthusiasts? You can, of course, use Fedora MOK keys when installing a Debian-based distribution EFI, but why bother? Communists, Komsomol members and pioneers who love difficulties, like sex in a hammock, for God's sake, use and temper your moral and volitional qualities, the rest, still adequate, pass by this Cala without stopping or looking back.

For laptops, as an option, you can simply leave a clean SD card + installation flash drive with Kali Linux in the slots during installation

The following option helped me.
We make 2nd bootable USB flash drives, insert both of them and the problem has disappeared. System installed

In addition to all that has been said ... Maybe I'll put in 5 kopecks, but, excuse me. The problem may be in the connector, namely, that the flash drive is inserted into the front panel, and not into the motherboard connector.
