Thanks! This is very useful information.

I've summed it all up on
https://redmine.tails.boum.org/code/issues/17049 and sketched out
a plan there.

Great :)

The first thing I'd like to try is replacing syslinux with GRUB.

Within 24h there should be an image with this change there:

https://nightly.tails.boum.org/build_Tails_ISO_feature-6560-secure-boot/lastSuccessful/archive/build-artifacts/

This image may not fully boot. It may display an error about aufs.ko
not being signed. But first things first: let's start with making sure
you see a boot loader menu and the boot loader executes the
Linux kernel.

Cheers,
