Description

Since Tails 0.11, we stopped shipping a hybrid ISO because:

  • the new USB installer provides an alternative way to install Tails on USB sticks;
  • our super-weird hybrid ISO’s (with recursive partition table and stuff) have been historically hard to boot on certain specific hardware, once burnt onto a CD

See document USB boot for Intel Mac for the only reason we’ve found to get more of hybrid ISO documentation back.
