I tested this on Debian Unstable, with an iso I already had
downloaded. There were some warnings about my internal hdd:
austin@debian-laptop:~$ tails-installer-launcher
[creator.py:622 (detect_supported_drives)] WARNING: Skipping device
'/org/freedesktop/UDisks2/block_devices/sda' connected to '' interface
[creator.py:622 (detect_supported_drives)] WARNING: Skipping device

interface

fyi (not sure if that's intended for users to see or not). In any
case, the installer worked fine on a 4GB usb key, though it did
require me to authenticate with sudo twice. Perhaps a warning should
be made that this will occur in the GUI (or recommend root). It booted
on my hardware that I normally use with tails.

This should make testing new isos MUCH easier, thanks everyone!
