How to Install Tails OS on USB flash drive for Wallet Purpose.
Using a Tail OS on a USB flash drive is good solution for people who don't have a personal computer and have to use a desktop computer with other people. It is a good solution but risk always exists and remember to decentralize your Bitcoin storage to different wallets, so if one wallet is compromised, you will not lose all bitcoins.
Risk of having 3 or 5 wallets are compromised when you plug your USB drive to 5 different computers will be smaller than risk of losing all bitcoin in only 1 wallet you have.

Privacy Challenge: try Tails
Tails is The Amnesic Incognito Live System. It's one of the best choices for improved online privacy and security, and easy to use. Most Bitcoin users have never used it. Give it a try, and be more private.
Personal Computer
Most computers from the last 10 years can run Tails. A 64 bit processor is needed, and 2GB or more RAM is recommended. See System Requirements.
USB flash drive
Get a USB flash drive, you need 8 GB or more. Any old stick works, but a faster one performs better. All data on it will be removed.
Limitations
Not all sites work very well through Tor. Some outright block you, some make you click motorcycles and buses, and some work normally. Try for yourself, and you'll find out how privacy friendly your favorite sites are.
Get Tails
Go to Tails.net, download Tails, and follow the instructions to install it from your current computer. Then reboot, and start from the flash drive. Share your experience here.
Bring it with you
Large storage, small dimensions and encryption. Small enough to bring, secure enough not to worry.
