Will this work with Tails OS? Aka Debain 6.

I can confirm that at least armory_0.88.1-beta_OfflineBundle_Ubuntu-10.04-32bit.tar.gz works with Tails 0.22. Haven't tried anything else.

In this case you can expect any of the .deb offline bundles to work with any Tails.

Ubuntu is close enough to Debian that an offline bundle targeted at Ubuntu has a high chance of working. With Tails it's another story. First of all, Tails is a live CD. It doesn't come with as many packages as a local installation of Debian or Ubuntu.

The second point is that it is possible the Tails team got rid of certain packages that usually come with a Debian live CD. So my guess is that none of our offline bundles would run as is on Tails.

The best approach here is to compare what is needed specifically for Tails and tailor a 'ready to go' bundle for it, since the offline part makes little sense for Tails.

Theoretically yes.  However, i've had reports of problems with the 12.04-64bit offline bundle.  It appears to work even after it displays a bunch of errors.  But it's not obvious that it worked.  There's no issue using the 32-bit version, though.

If I'm understanding correctly, for FDE (full disk encryption) support on Ubuntu 12.04, I need to use the 12.04.3 alternate install.

If I install 12.04.3 with FDE, can I then use the standard Armory 0.90 offline bundle for Ubuntu 12.04 (or will that bundle only work with the standard 12.04 installation)?
