Hi,

I have someone telling me that TAILS won’t boot from a USB drive, unless these 
three files are replace (initrd.gz, ldlinux.sys, mbr.bin).   That doesn’t make 
any sense to me.

I’m fairly sure this is an attack.  Can you let me know if TAILS boots just 
fine without replacing these files?   Thanks!


/assets/root_folder/OSes/
initrd.gz       ldlinux.sys     mbr.bin

To boot Tails Os from usbdrive we need only mbr.bin and syslinux, Yeah i am not 
using initrd.gz and ldlinux.sys, And i am not using that mbr.bin files from our 
repo, Instead to that ; i downloaded official syslinux from direct source file 
and use mbr.bin from that source. And for syslinux; I am usingsyslinux-mac

This is modified syslinux, Specially made for mac os by the creator of 
unetbootin, His name is Geza Kovacs. Official syslinux need some kind of C 
language knowledge and how to use "make" utility and i am not very efficient in 
that, So i use ready-made syslinux created by well known person.


Best,
-Bryan
