Hello, Thank you for the response, when Tails 2.12 is released today, will it be publicly available to download? I can see from the roadmap plan as listed on the Tails.boum.org website that the full version 2.12 will not be released until April 18th.

So you want to install these two packages: * linux-headers-4.8.0-0.bpo.2-686 * linux-headers-4.8.0-0.bpo.2-amd64 since we ship two kernels. Indeed, those Jessie backports have been replaced with the linux-headers-4.9.0-2-* versions now, so you will have to use something like http://snapshot.debian.org to get these older versions. Try going back to the date when Tails 2.10 was released. OTOH, the release candidate of Tails 2.12 will be released later today, and it (and the final Tails 2.12) will use Linux 4.9, so I suggest you don't bother analysing Tails 2.10 with Linux 4.8 but start with Tails 2.12~rc1 and Linux 4.9 to get something more relevant. > FYI I am doing a computer forensics project, and my research is based upon > Tails usage, to investigate what can or cannot be retrieved (data wise).
