I am not sure about tails, but under Ubuntu you can just use
Code:
echo -n "Message" | sha256sum

Don't forget the "-n" otherwise you will hash your message including a newline.

If you're using Windows and you'd rather not have to install any additional software, there's a certutil command available to calculate hashes (among other things).

To calculate a hash, do  certutil -hashfile filename algorithm

For example, certutil -hashfile image.png SHA256

The available hash algorithms are MD2, MD4, MD5, SHA1, SHA256, SHA384, and SHA512.

Just writing some code
You can use OpenSSL's hashing command. Or you can write your bytes to a file (with a hex editor or something) and hash the file using sha256sum which comes standard in most linux distributions.

Hello guys,

Do you know any SHA-256 binary hash calculator, like this online one:

https://cryptii.com/hash-function

The goal is to create my own seed from 256 bits generate with a dice, then to the binary sha-256 hash in order to find the last 8 bits (checksum) for my seed.

For obvious security reasons, I want to use a old, offline computer using tails live-cd.

Thanks,
