Don't touch your existing M.2 drive. Get a spare drive (spinning rust is OK) at least as large as your M.2 drive and that you can attach to your machine (e.g. with a USB SATA dock). Download Tails to a USB stick. Boot your machine into Tails. Connect your spare drive. `fdisk -l` to be sure you have the right device names for all your disks. `dd` your M.2 to the spare drive. Now `sync` the disk and detach it. You now have a backup of your current state. If you _need_ to access some VM data now, you can (with major negative security implications) decrypt your M.2 disk manually with `cryptsetup`, navigate to <m.2>/var/lib/qubes/appvms/<yourvm> and use `losetup` to help mount the VM's data disk in Tails so you can copy off whatever data you urgently need. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
