Hi sajolida,
I try again to create an intermediary Tails using Gnome Disk. I have 2 Dell computers:
The first one is a Vostro 1510, the intermediary Tails usb keys doesn't boot, the bios message is: "Missing Operating System";
the second one is an Inspiron 3847,I insert intermediary Tails usb key, but no message and Fedora 22 boot.
The final Tails installed from a DVD to an usb key boots and works fine on the both.
>I hope to help you...


Also, I would like the next version of Tails is delivered with "proxychains". Thank you.
Regards.
