Re: [Tails-testers] 1.2 beta vs 1.1.2 errors

Hi Emma,

(Cc'ing you as I'm not sure whether you read -testers@)

Thanks for forwarding this email to us, but I'm not sure what you
expect us to do then, since it lacks most information we would need to
make anything out of it.

In case you have a way to get more information, I'll make it clear
below what's unclear or missing. And if you have no such way, then
please make it clear next time that it's all what we'll ever have:
knowing this changes a lot the way (at least) I look at such
incomplete reports.

What installation method is that exactly? Manual Linux install?

There's no such thing as "kernel patches" in the boot process, so
instead of such attempts at guessing what's happening, we need to know
what's actually on the screen.

This can mean many different things. What's happening exactly?

Installed the exact same way?

Recognized by what?
