Well... You need to have a look at our code then: http://git.tails.boum.org/tails First have a look at the network configuration done by NetworkManager, and try to reach a similar result without it: http://git.tails.boum.org/tails/tree/config/chroot_local-includes/etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d Then you'll definitely have to build a Tails image: https://tails.boum.org/contribute/build/ > Tails Server Edition is a very interesting project but don't expect it >> to become a really in the near future.

Anything you do by reusing Tails, interacting with us, and shared your work can be helpful to Tails in general. But then, if you start hacking, please do that on [email protected] :)
