Booting Tails from SSD
 

I wonder if there's a simple way to modify Tails, so that it can be boot from SSD, which treated as non-removable hard drive, without problem. Currently I must modify the boot loader every time to boot from SSD, I do that bcoz SSD loads faster than ordinary flash drive.

What bootloader/file are you modifying? Assuming you are using grub a /boot/grub/grub.custom file with a menu entry for tails should suffice. There is no need to run update-grub with changes to a grub.custom file.

I also want to know which file to modify, so that I can made it permanent. What I did was to edit the boot options to remove the "livemedia=removable" statement so that it will boot straight away without error, as SSD is treated as fixed drive unlike regular USB flash drive as removable.

Need more information. Is this ssd internal or external drive? How did you put the iso onto the ssd?

It's a USB SSD stick, I install Tails the normal way with USB image writing app from Linux Mint no special settings.

I just did a test to install Tails on a Samsung T5 500G USB SSD, it booted halfway then return error of "unable to find a live file system...", same as the Buffalo 256G I used, until I removed the "live-media=removable" statement in the boot options.

Edit the tails EFI/debian/grub.cfg and/or one the live.cfg syslinux directory
