I recently set up Kali Linux on a Toshiba 16gb USB flash drive with persistence. I can boot the drive up and it will save all setting etc. So I decided to get a 64GB flash drive to do the same.
The issue I have is that the drive needs to be partitioned, so after the ISO image is written to it from Universal USB installer, I opened Minitool partition wizard and resized the primary partitions to 32GB. The unallocatted 32GB needs to be Primary, Ext4 partition labelled persistence, but when I attempt to create this is shows the file system as unknown. I opened the drive in Gparted also and although it shows that it is creating it to Ext4, it then goes back to Unknown.
I have tried to also recreate in NTFS and get the same result. It is an unbranded USB but i have checked and the drive in GetDriveInfo and get the following result:

If anyone can let me know what is going and how it can be resolved it would be much appreciatted.
Answer
I guess it would be easier to get disk image for each mount point/partition you have with the help of Clonezilla. Afterward, you can create a new partition table for 64GB drive and restore images of a 16GB drive to the 64GB one.
