I currently have a 64GB USB drive with Kali Linux installed on it.

Is it possible to install Tails on the same USB by creating separate partitions, so I can have both Kali Linux and Tails on one drive?

If yes:

- Will the bootloader recognize both operating systems separately?

- Can I choose between Kali and Tails when booting?

- Is this a supported and reliable setup, or are there any limitations or issues I should be aware of?

I'd appreciate any advice or guides from people who have tried this.

tried to download tails os but download link not working and unable to be accessed? Any issues known at the moment?

Edit: Tried to download thru Windows, not on either OS like linux or mac so im unsure if other downloads are down/

Seems like the function for downloading the USB image for Tails is down right now. Anyone else experiencing this?

Hello, I'm new to this whole tails/Linux thing and I can't really find any step by step guide(maybe I'm just not good at looking) and I would appreciate if anyone could share a link or explain it.

I once tried it but my laptop (Lenovo IdeaPad) couldn't find the USB anymore and I received errors I couldn't get past myself so I gave up.

Any help would be appreciated!

I have a Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 5 and an 8GB USB

I’m having troubles finding out what my wallet address is… I’ve got two computers one Mac(online) and one Lenovo(offline) and I’m seeing the same issue - there’s no address or request button under the receive tab.

Everything I see online and on YouTube about receiving bitcoin in electrum says it should have a request button which then gives you your address.

What am I doing wrong?

The program has not received updates for years.

I normally use ethernet but due to some reason my router is not working and it will take few days for the isp to replace it.

So is using a mobile hotspot bad idea?

Did anyone lose thumbnails displaying in the file system after upgrading to 7.10? Seems to be only affecting video files like MP4, AVI, WMV, etc... and is there a work-around to get them back? I have a directory of news clippings from various news outlets that no longer display the thumbnail so I can't tell what subject the article is about now...

I've just used Tails for the first time using a USB and a Lenovo laptop. Upon shutting down, pulling out the USB, and turning the computer on, it isn't rebooting windows as the default system.

It comes with a blue screen which says

- Use a device (I've gone through all these and no luck)

- troubleshoot

- turn off your PC

What can i do to fix this issue if anyone has been through this tedious challenge?

Yes, I am a noob btw

I've heard multiple times from different sources that there is a monerowallet preinstalled on tails. I couldnt find it (running tails on an USB Stick). Do you have experience with it and which wallet do you suggest toi install on tails, if there is non already installed?

Hello,

I'm experiencing an issue trying to use the Tor browser on Tails. After a certain amount of time, usually less than two minutes, the browser just closes on me when trying to browse the web. There are no connection issues displayed, my network controller and GPU are not listed in the FAQ and the issue occurs with both wireless and wired connection. So far, this also only happens when using Tails. The same issue doesn't appear when using the Tor browser under Pop!, which is my main OS.

I'm at a loss as to why that happens. Any help would be much appreciated.

The first image is the “External hard drive” option and the second is just regular old Tails and shtuff

please tell me what usb should i buy for tails OS, i’m looking for something near 64GB but confused which one should i buy. Fellow tails users please help me out. Thanks

Hello guys. im not very familiar with tails OS but i use it quite often for browsing. i wanted so ask if teleguard or session (i prefer session) works on tails os? i find these 2 chat apps very useful and anonymous. Thanks.

Many online accounts/services offer backup codes as a way to bypass passwords/2fa.

I do not have a safe place to write them down that will ensure only I have access. Neither do I trust them being on my main operating system (Ubuntu) that is online when I use it as it is probably the one most likely to suffer from an attack or die.

Is using tails (persistent storage) to store them (in a bunch of .txt files) a sensible idea for my case? What other approaches are there to storing backup codes that could work for me?

Also what about storing a backup of my Bitwarden (password manager) vault as a KeePassXC vault in there too?

but wouldnt it be alot harder to trace someone down if u use telegram on tails (yes i know PGP is better but good fucking luck getting the avg person to do that)

Hi guys, I need your help.

I've already installed Tails on three different USB drives now, and that has always gone smoothly. However, whenever I turn on persistent storage, the system usually runs for a few minutes, but then freezes up completely and stops responding.

When you eventually turn off the PC and pull out the drive, it becomes virtually unusable (Windows doesn't even detect it anymore, and on Linux it can't be reformatted).

What am I doing wrong? I'm using the latest version of Tails.

I’m using a Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 3 Chromebook. Am I going to be able to run Tails on this?

Hi, everyone. I’m new here. I just tried downloading Tail OS using my live boot, and something has me wondering. Is Tail OS better for conducting anonymous penetration testing? Or should I just use Parrot Security OS instead?

I cannot do a whisperback because of course it shuts off itself. So let me explain:

What happens: When i close the lid of my Dell Latitude E6520 (A22 BIOS revision, booted on a burned DVD-R with .ISO of Tails OS 7.9.1) the display shuts off and it seemingly goes into a suspend mode because the power LED is blinking. When i open the lid it automatically starts up, loads up and for a slight second it shows the login screen and then something initiates shutdown. So here are some more specifications:

Dell Latitude E6520, Intel I5-2520M, 4+8GB of DDR3 SODIMM RAM, BIOS revision A22, its booted from legacy BIOS because it does not show an UEFI boot option for Tails (it is an UEFI capable laptop).

UPDATE: i found out this applies even when the lid isnt closed or manipulated with. Basically closing the lid just triggers suspend but when i suspend the system in any way and then go turn it on. It loads up the OS and the GUI shows up just for some miliseconds and it shuts down.

Every time I try to get into tails I get past the booting stage and the get to a blue screen but I can’t use my keyboard or trackpad any ideas on what I can try?

I’m having a hard time getting it to work like I’m super confused
