Miscellaneous test results
|
|
|
==========================
|
|
|
|
|
|
* With Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro, the UEFI nightly release does work, while it didn't
|
|
|
work previously.
|
|
|
* boots on ThinkPad X220 (syslinux 6.02+dfsg-1 and
|
|
|
3:6.03~pre1+dfsg-1~bpo60+1) in UEFI mode
|
|
|
* ThinkPad X230 (syslinux 3:6.03~pre1+dfsg-1~bpo60+1):
|
|
|
- boots fine in UEFI mode, but displays the syslinux menu very much
|
|
|
translated to the top: one can see the two menu entries, but
|
|
|
nothing else, so if one must edit the kernel command-line, they
|
|
|
have to do it blindly
|
|
|
- boots fine in Legacy BIOS mode, so at least we have no hardware
|
|
|
support regression here
|
|
|
* boots on ThinkPenguin Royal (syslinux 6.02+dfsg-1 and
|
|
|
6.03~pre1+dfsg-1)
|
|
|
* boots on MacBook Pro 13-inch Mid 2012 9,2 (EFI 2.9), and MacBook Pro
|
|
|
13-inch Late 2011 8,1 (EFI 2.7), both with and without rEFInd *if*
|
|
|
`menu background splash.png` is removed from `stdmenu.cfg`; adding
|
|
|
`menu resolution 640 480` before `menu background` makes the menu
|
|
|
display "correctly" (only taking 1/4 of the screen, but oh well),
|
|
|
*but* the system does not boot; without rEFInd, one has to press Alt
|
|
|
before powering the laptop up, and keep it pressed until a menu
|
|
|
appears, and then choose the entry that's called *Boot EFI* (as
|
|
|
every other entry) and looks like a USB stick.
|
|
|
* on MacBook Pro 13-inch Mid 2012 with rEFInd, one has to choose
|
|
|
*Fallback boot loader from Tails* in rEFInd to boot, as the *Boot
|
|
|
Linux from Tails* entry does nothing at all (syslinux 6.02+dfsg-1
|
|
|
and 6.03~pre1+dfsg-1)
|
|
|
* The ThinkPenguin Royal does not detect the bootloader if installed
|
|
|
as `EFI/Tails/syslinux.efi`; hence the use of the fallback bootloader
|
|
|
path (`BOOT/bootx64.efi`), which should work on more hardware.
|
|
|
* tails-i386-feature_uefi-0.23-20131222T0855Z-8acf864.iso
|
|
|
boots fine on a Apple MacBook Air 13" mid 2011 (MacBookAir4,2)
|
|
|
once installed with Tails Installer
|
|
|
* MacBook Pro 15-inch Mid 2010 (6,2) boots fine with rEFInd and
|
|
|
tails-i386-feature_uefi-0.23-20131222T0855Z-8acf864.iso, *if* `menu
|
|
|
background splash.png` is removed from `stdmenu.cfg`; if one
|
|
|
adds `menu resolution 640 480` before `menu background`, the system
|
|
|
does not boot.
|
|
|
* Lenovo ThinkPad X130e:
|
|
|
tails-i386-feature_uefi-0.23-20140104T0920Z-3305611.iso boots fine.
|
|
|
* Lenovo E325: tails-i386-feature_uefi-0.23-20140104T0920Z-3305611.iso
|
|
|
boots fine.
|
|
|
* MacBook Air Original (1,1): one has to press Esc twice in rEFInd to
|
|
|
have it see the USB stick; then, rEFInd apparently loads syslinux,
|
|
|
that fails to display its menu, even after commenting out most
|
|
|
menu-related setting that has to do with color or positioning.
|
|
|
Finally, Tails does not boot.
|
|
|
* ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. X55VD: boots fine with `menu background
|
|
|
splash.png` removed (both with CSM enabled and disabled); only boots
|
|
|
in CSM mode with `menu background splash.png` kept in place
|
|
|
* Boots fine on ThinkPad W520 (tails-i386-feature_uefi-1.0-20140324T1026Z-dd350d4.iso).
|
|
|

# Tests with syslinux 3:6.03~pre18+dfsg-1~bpo70+1
|
|
|
|
|
|
* MacBookPro 13-inch Late 2011 8,1. All what follows is using a USB
|
|
|
device installed with Tails Installer, using an experimental ISO
|
|
|
(20140731) with syslinux 3:6.03~pre18+dfsg-1~bpo70+1. The same
|
|
|
computer boots Tails 1.1 just fine.
|
|
|
- boots just fine with the default configuration
|
|
|
- uncommenting `menu background splash.png` in
|
|
|
`EFI/BOOT/stdmenu.cfg` => stuck at the Mac boot menu
|
|
|
- same as above, and add `MENU RESOLUTION 1024 768` to
|
|
|
`EFI/BOOT/tails.cfg` => displayed *once* the syslinux boot menu
|
|
|
with the expected background image, can edit the kernel cmdline,
|
|
|
but does not boot (display stuck at the syslinux menu); and then
|
|
|
I can't reproduce it, and it's stuck at the Mac boot menu, like
|
|
|
when `MENU RESOLUTION 1024 768` wasn't here.
|
|
|
- same as above, but with `MENU RESOLUTION 640 480`
|
|
|
=> stuck at the Mac boot menu
|
|
|
* MacBookPro9,2: with an experimental ISO built from
|
|
|
c183ad91bce6c0fa4a95c387c8f5c8387acf9a0c, same results as with 1.1;
|
|
|
and same as above MacBookPro 8,1 results wrt. menu config tweaks.
|
|
|
* TOSHIBA PORTEGE Z830: boots fine with `isohybrid --entry 4 --type
|
|
|
0x1c` and a <1GB ISO.
|
|
|
* TOSHIBA PORTEGE Z930: boots fine from a stick installed with Tails
|
|
|
Installer (from DVD), while it did not boot with Tails 1.1.
|
|
|
* ThinkPad X61, EeePC Seashell series, VirtualBox 4.3.14-dfsg-1 (MBR):
|
|
|
status quo, works just as fine as before
|
|
|
* ASUSTeK UX31E: works fine, while it required manual selection in
|
|
|
BIOS in Tails 1.1.
|
|
|
* Mid-2012 Mac Pro (6-core 3.33Ghz 32GB memory): boots fine from DVD
|
|
|
* Mid-2010 15" MacBook Pro (MacBookPro 6,2): boots fine from DVD
|
|
|
* Lenovo x61s: boots fine from manually installed USB stick
|
|
|
* Macbook pro early 2008 (4,1): boots fine from DVD.
|
|
|
* OVMF:
|
|
|
- Boots fine. Fails to shutdown (hangs at "Starting new kernel").
|
|
|
- with "menu background splash.png": boots fine. The syslinux menu is
|
|
|
as beautiful as when booting in MBR mode.
|
|
|
- with "MENU RESOLUTION 1024 768": boots fine. The menu is smaller.
|
|
|
- with "menu background splash.png" and "MENU RESOLUTION 1024 768":
|
|
|
boots fine. The menu is smaller and the background gets tiled
|
|
|
(repeated as 2x2 tiles) which is ugly.
|
|
|
* MacBookPro 2.6GHZ Mid 2012 15" (A1286 / MD104LL), Tails 1.2:
|
|
|
- DVD: boots fine
|
|
|
- manual install method for mac: boots fine
|
|
|
- Tails Installer: doesn't boot |
