In the first case you are creating a disposableVM, based on a a DVM Template, fedora-28-dvm In the second case you are creating a DVM Template, which will be used as the basis for disposableVMs. That is the difference, and it's why you cant resize the named dvm - the named dvm takes its properties from the underlying DVM Template. unman -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
