Hello, Is there any special reason why the partition where Tails installs itself is non-deterministic? It is thanks to differing timestamps on the filesystem.
This posses a problem for a prudent user who would like to be able to verify Tails integrity, e.g. by typing: dd if=/dev/sda1 | sha1sum This might be especially useful if one uses the stick on various computers and would like to verify if her USB stick holding Tails installs hasn't been modified (e.g. by a malicious BIOS). Yes, I'm aware that the first sector of the disk (/dev/sda) would still differ thanks to different partition sizes. Thanks, joanna.
