Steve I can already tell this is doing the trick, tyvm! I appreciate the tip. I still think its like some sick joke being played on qubes 3.2 users. That the 4.0 iso is 100mb larger then the temporary space available.... what is up with that? seriously... I'm talking even with a fresh default template. its 4.2 / 10.5gb available... Ajoke Sort of like Uman telling me to make the /tmp 4096M. Which still would have been again just short of the iso... I mean come on.... Are the devs just trying to get us to stop using Qubes for some reason!?! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
