<p>Choosing the <b>External Hard Disk</b> entry in the Boot Loader or removing
the <code>live-media=removable</code> boot
option might be dangerous. If an adversary had access to the computer
and installed a malicious Tails on the internal hard disk, the computer
might start on the malicious Tails instead of on the USB stick.</p>
