    Can you do me a favor and test Mixfit[1], the brand new YAMN GUI client,
    under Tails, when setting the port in the config menu to 9050 instead
    of 1080? I ask because I currently have no Tails installation, because
    Windows 11 complained with a red alert box, that this is not valid to
    boot, so to speak. So far it works fine with Tor or NymVPN under Android
    with PlugOS.

    Best Regards

    I don't download anything, just keeping it simple.

    Have a nice day.

    How do you post then via dizum and Auto-Supplied-Header
    with additional MIME headers, only Tails PGP usage then?

    Have a nice day as well!

    Hi Stefan,
    the boot issue is worth fixing, it's almost certainly not a Tails
    problem, but how the image was written to USB.

    Tails ships a .img, meant to be written raw/byte-for-byte to the stick,
    not mounted or burned as an ISO.

    If you used Rufus in "ISO Image mode" instead of "DD Image mode," it
    rebuilds the partition table incorrectly and produces exactly the kind
    of "not a valid boot device" red screen you're seeing.

    Best regards

    Gabx

    Hi Gabx,

    I had a working installion from them installed, but no worries
    as I use NymVPN on PlugOS and therefore no longer need Tails.
