Show HN: Tailboot – A bootable that connects to your Tailscale network (tailboot.download)

1 points by shoeb00m ↗ HN
Hi everyone, I often use coding agents to debug remote machines when the host OS isn’t working. I built Tailboot for that workflow: it’s a minimal Debian-based live image that boots from USB, joins your tailnet using a Tailscale auth key, and starts Tailscale SSH.

The access key is injected into the ISO entirely client side, But I generally recommend adding a tag to it that will block it from being able to access other nodes on your network.

TBH no way any sane person is putting an auth key in there, I see you have an issue open though. Great idea, very useful , I’ll watch for that PR!
