After following the links, I see that yes I had already visited those, however they do lead to other important links to be sure, so thank you. The ones you sent me explain how to install through the terminal, I believe, whereas I was hoping to simply transfer the file from my stick over to the computer and then simply hit install. Is the only option that I use the terminal, do you know? Thanks -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
