Did you check the links I gave you? It explains how to boot form a DVD. > On the DVD there are 3 folder (.disk, isolinux, live).

You should insert the DVD in you computer, reboot, and if necessary set up your BIOS to boot from DVD, as explained here: https://tails.boum.org/doc/first_steps/start_tails/index1h1 Cheers. > > Date: Sat, 10 May 2014 13:38:47 +0000 > > From: [email protected] > > To: [email protected] > > CC: [email protected] > > Subject: Re: [Tails-support] Help > > > > > > Hi, > > > > > I love the idea behind Tails and would like to use it.
