Start Tails
You can now restart your computer on Tails. Congratulations!
But your computer might still restart automatically on your usual operating system even
if your Tails USB stick is plugged in. You might have to press a key when powering up
to choose to start on your Tails USB stick.
The precise key combination depends on your computer brand and model. The following
list will help you identify which key to press.
Acer: Esc, F12 or F9. Most computers models from Acer should work with the F12 key.
Asus: F8 or Esc
Compaq: Esc or F9
Dell: F12
Fujitsu: F12
HP: Esc or F9. If Esc works, you may need to press F9 afterwards: Esc + F9.
