This rules out the recent kernel update then- 4.14.18-1 is the older one. > I'm open for more advice :) My goal is to recover the documents from some > VMs (accounting, vmWin7, vault, untrusted, personal, work, archives).

Yes, this approach should work but you'll have to use mount commands (and possibly LVM) directly. Look in /dev/mapper/ to see if your -private volumes are listed. If so, you should be able to do something like "mount /dev/mapper/guest-private /mnt" (do a "mkdir mnt" first), then copy the files out. "umount /mnt" when done and repeat for the next volume. If you don't see the /dev/mapper/ entries, look into LVM commands like vgscan and kpartx. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
