I just remembered that you can flash more times without having to do the whole process from scratch. So you will be able to flash several drives using DTails.

1. Modify this line and add there normal instead disabled.
2. If you have future_iso directory (You haven't remove anything) open DTails Live install tab and start flashing! 2.1 If you have all removed. Just do the custom process once and then start the flash process in several drives, because you now have enabled the Live install tab.

1. In dmesg I have a sdb drive, I see "Pendrive connected" in "Live install" tab but not see name of device and /dev/sdX
2. The error in first post happens after click on "Install to device"
3. It's a ordinary 8GB USB flash drive

Does it shows sdb1, sdb2... in dmesg? Keep pressing in case it shows up after few seconds. If pendrive shows there as connected, it should appear in the dropdown menu.

I need to see the dmesg in order to help you. You can put emojis or whatever on top of serial numbers and so if you want. See the example here in what I need. Thanks

Oh, my bad, I choose my drive from list, but there is other issue which I resolved. The issue in that you can't flash to empty drive w/o any file system. If you create a partition then everything fine. If there is no partitions on drive you face with this error:

Error: Could not stat device /dev/sd - No such file or directory.

Great that you solved that. Do you think that all problems were solved?

Please close this issue if you think so.
