I have found the reason why Tails won't download is because of the NoScript add-on I have on FF browser.
I disabled NoScript and the Tails .iso downloaded successfully. I then went through the rest of the tutorial and installed Tails onto a new usb. However, when I boot from the Tails usb I get the following error message: Code:
modprobe: module microcode not found in modules.dep I selected that option on re-boot and got another error message: Code:
3.157143 i8042: If AUX port is really absent please use the 'i8042.noaux' option |
I have attempted installing Tails OS onto usb by using a different Debian OS.
I first ran an 'apt-get update' and 'apt-get upgrade' and then followed the Tails tutorial. When I use tails-installer to install the tails.iso onto usb, I get the following error message: Code:
Tails installation failed! Also, should I try installing a different distro like Mint or Ubuntu? Any help would be appreciated. |

Tails has always offered its OS on usb. Quote:
The first time, the usb loaded the tails splash screen but would go no further. The second time, the tails-installer would fail to save the tails .iso onto the usb. Firstly, a search on the error messages seem to indicate bugs on the debian OS. Also, the debian-installer is installed via Synaptic (the GUI) and selecting 'jessie-backports'. Since the terminal isn't used with a simple 'apt-get install tails-installer', I'm guessing that debian hasn't officially made the tails-installer compatible for a successful Tails OS install. Also, this debian site says 'tails-installer' is removed from testing. So is that a good thing or a bad thing? My options are to try the second method of installation: using command line and GnuPG. The problem is the tutorial then tells you to install OpenPGP (not GnuPG). This is a little confusing. Alternatively, I can install Ubuntu or Mint and see if I have better success. However, it would be good to know if the tails tutorial works for any linux user. |

I'm afraid I was drunk when I made that remark which you've taken such great pains to highlight. So I'm sorry to anyone of a sensitive disposition, and in particular the mod I was replying to, for offending them in any way, shape or form. I will endeavour to reply less whilst under the influence and ensure I'm always polite on this rather excellent site. |
it's one thing to make jokes about it during elections, but now he really became president, who's going to laugh?
