Hello,

When installing tails for the first time yesterday, i was a bit lost in the documentation.
Here's the path I followed : "Documentation" > "Get Tails". Here I get and verified the Tails image, it was OK. But then : "First steps with Tails". It's never said in the page "Installing onto USB stick" or "Manually install Tails onto another USB stinck" that it's now OK, that I can start Tails by rebooting on the USB stick. In the page "manually...", the last thing I read before troubleshooting is "The whole process might take some time, generally a few minutes. Be patient…".

I see 2 ways of fixing that :
1. Only to these pages, adding "Now, you can [[start]] Tails" (redirecting to the page https://tails.boum.org/doc/first_steps/start_tails/index.en.html ) and, if needed "and [[install Tails]] to another USB stick from your fresh new Tails to activate persistence support".
2. More generally, automatically add a link below every page towards the next page in the documentation (following the order given in the index page).

'hope this helps,

Sam.
