Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/netbootxyz/netboot.xyz/issues/1624

Whenever tails is attempted to be booted both in a VM and on live hardware, both from using a local asset and remote on github. The boot process shows the normal gray screen with three white dots which move across that is expected when booting to Tails, and then drops to the BusyBox initramfs live file system. The boot.log only shows the below entry repeated, not sure what the issue is.

mount: /run/live/fromiso: mount failed: Operation not permitted.

Looks like the kernel wasn't loading the loop module by default preventing the ISO from being mounted. Scripts been updated to force a modprobe loop, and align better with the existing script github.com/netbootxyz/asset-mirror@003883262d. The build system should be cranking a new one out, check back in a few hours on the Development Menu to see if it's functioning for 6.15.

Thanks for raising it!
