Hi, Just reporting that I have a couple of older machines that both work well with Tails 1.8.2 -- an old Thinkpad that used to run XP and an old Macbook Pro 4,1 (early 2008).
Tails 1.8.2 is based on Wheezy. Both machines fail on Tails 2.x -- the Thinkpad gets further than the Macbook Pro. 2.x is based on Jessie. Don't know why they don't work with Jessie / systemd setup, but one would have thought that Tails should be made to work on just about any machine. Tails 2.x works fine on a much newer laptop (18 month old one with i7-4700MQ cpu and nvidia graphic card -- on the whole anyway; there are glitches getting to the "applications" menu; it works for a bit, then stops working unless I open the places menu and move left to the applications menu. Strange. Anyway, just thought I would put it out there. Have "whispered" back to Tails team on these, so hopefully fixes will be forthcoming in time. Cheers A.
