Tails does not boot from USB when installed with Tails Installer on recent Debian testing/sid system
Originally created by @intrigeri on #14809 (Redmine)
If I select that device on a ThinkPad T430 with EFI disabled and press enter, then I see a black screen for 2 seconds and then I’m back to the BIOS’ boot menu. Reproduced both with a device installed from ISO with Tails Installer 5.0.1+dfsg-0tails1 on Debian sid, and with one cloned from a running Tails/Buster DVD.
The system partition hasn’t the correct type, it’s not an ESP and is not flagged “legacy BIOS bootable”. Looks like the recent udisks2 updates broke our stuff.
