Now I'm a bit lost, so:

* just to be clear: did these machines boot from Tails 1.3 "made with
Tails Installer"?

* what's the exact behaviour the user sees when Tails 1.3.1 fails
to boot?

(I can't remember of any change, between 1.3 and 1.3.1, that would
impact booting from a device created by Tails Installer, but not
a device installed manually, so I suspect a user mistake somewhere
here, or some unclarity in the report -- I would dislike adding wrong
"hardware that doesn't work" information to our known issues page.)

Thanks :)
