I am not sure I 100% follow you (noobness). Other devices do show up, here is what I got: [user@personal ~]$ cd /dev/ [user@personal dev]$ ls xvd* xvda xvdb xvdc xvdc1 xvdc2 xvdd xvdi Do you mean like xvdi1 xvdi2 etc? As for template, sorry about that, I have tried both the fedora-24 and debian-9 templates (the above is output from a fed appvm) I generally got mounting partitions but that does lead me to two questions: #1 I assume I need to see more than just xvdi? (like partition numbers like i do for xvdc?) #2 would I have to manually mount it on each appvm everytime I want to use it? (perhaps not a huge deal as I eventually want to have it permantly used by 2-3appvms and no others so I assume that would involve some fstab tinkering?) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
