Hi,
Ticket:
https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/6538
I am sending a patch again, since I could not access the repo (It does
not recognize my public key, maybe its my fault :/). Besides, I am not
sure about the smallest required size for the USB stick, I wrote a
kind of arbitrary size:
+ 'min_device_size': 2.8,
based on the ticket and this document:
https://tails.boum.org/contribute/design/installation/
Any feedback is very welcome.
Cheers,
kurono
