Dear Tails Support, First of all, thank you very much for your great work with Tails!
There is an issue that I want you to know about. It evolves around creating the Live USB stick from the Ubuntu command line explained on your site. I have managed to create the USB stick using UNetbootin. Unfortunately it still does not work. After selecting the USB as the device to boot from I face the following five options, which each result in some form of freeze: Default: gets stuck at "[sdb] Attached SCSI disk" menu_adm64: presents me with "boot:" menu_486: presents me with "boot:" Live (failsafe): starts the white/blue Debian loading screen which gets stuck when it's completely white. Live: starts the white/blue Debian loading screen which gets stuck when it's completely white. I'm on Ubuntu 14.04, but I have also tried creating the Live USB using the command line from 12.04 without success. Unfortunately I don't have easy access to a Windows or Mac computer so I could not try that, please let me know if that would have a high chance of success, though. I'm running the command isohybrid 'tails-i386-1.0.iso' --entry 4 --type 0x1c successfully (it seems, there is no output). The command sudo dd if=' tails-i386-1.0.iso' of=dev/sdc1 bs=16M gives the output: "56+1 records in 56+1 records out 953155584 bytes (953 MB) copied, 121.927 s, 7.8 MB/s" I have tried booting from various computers (Lenovo T60, HP Envy), the one I'm on right now is a *Lenovo Thinkpad Edge 15* that boots Ubuntu and Debian 7.5 fine from USB. It does not have UEFI or Secure Boot. The USB drive is being detected as bootable, but after chosing it the screen just stays blank except for a blinking underscore in the upper left corner that keeps blinking indefinitely. It's the same behavior across all devices. The same computer and sticks are booting Debian 7.5.0 and Ubuntu 14.04 fine. Thanks a lot for any pointers and please let me know if you have any questions!
