Tails OS guide and installation
Tails OS overview and installation. Tails is a live boot linux OS geared towards online security and privacy. The idea is to boot tails using a USB drive so no browsing data is saved on the internal drive of the computer. Can be booted on any modern computer that supports booting from usb.
I would suggest watching my tutorial how to backup the data and actually back up your data if needed in the event an error is made during the dd or ddrescue process.
