In an ISO that shall boot from DVD ?
Please give me an download URL.

I just downloaded
  http://dl.amnesia.boum.org/tails/stable/tails-i386-2.11/tails-i386-2.11.iso
which has as volume id: 'TAILS 2.11 - 20170306'.
It does not bear any boot starting points for EFI. Neither for DVD nor
for HDD.


Knoppix 8.0 (distributed with german Linux Magazin issue 04/17) tries
to handle EFI by SYSLINUX equipment.
I could not yet make a test with real EFI and real DVD. But qemu+OVMF
aborts when trying to boot via -cdrom (-hda works fine).

A problem with general discussion of its EFI equiment is that Knoppix 8.0
is not yet available for download.


Have a nice day :)

Thomas
