There are instructions at www.qubes-os.org/doc/ under the Build heading. Basically you set up the Build environment and Qubes Builder as detailed on those links, and then you will need to patch the Xen source tree before running 'make vmm-xen'. What interests me most about this is that I have never had problems with disposableVMs on any install I've done, and that's coming up to 60 installs now, on a wide variety of machines. I would be completely lost without disposableVMs - I use them a lot. So what is it that triggers this bug for some users, and not others? I don't recall any systematic effort to track down what's happening at root cause. unman -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
