Scenario Re-installing Tails over an existing USB installation with a persistent partition

Before features/support/hooks.rb:281 0.003
Steps
# We reach this first checkpoint only to ensure that the ' __internal' disk has reached the state (Tails installed + persistent partition set up) we need before we clone it below.
# This first part is done without Tails Installer (install from Tails USB image)
# Note: the "__internal" disk will keep its state across scenarios
# and features until one of its snapshots is restored.
Given I have started Tails without network from a USB drive with a persistent partition enabled and logged in 7.794
And I have started Tails from DVD without network and logged in 6.474
And I clone USB drive "__internal" to a temporary USB drive "install" 0.629
And I plug USB drive "install" 2.459
# This second part is done with Tails Installer, that's what this scenario is about
