So from the installation security guide I read the following: "Use a USB optical drive. Attach a SATA optical drive to a secondary SATA controller, then assign this secondary SATA controller to an AppVM."
And for USB Drive: "Untrustworthy firmware. (Firmware can be malicious even if the drive is new. Plugging a drive with rewritable firmware into a compromised machine can also compromise the drive. Installing from a compromised drive could compromise even a brand new Qubes installation.)" Do usb optical drives not also have the same problem firmware wise? What about sata? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
