If using your file manager in the AppVM does not display the new device you can always use qvm-block in dom0 to tell you where the device is currently assigned, and under what name. Once you have attached the device to your AppVM you can run qvm-block in dom0 with no arguments and it will display the device name in the results. You will see it as "frontend-dev=<your device name>" on that line on the right. Probably "xvdi" or something close to that. Then you can then use the mount command in the AppVM to mount the device (e.g. "/dev/xvdi" ) wherever you like. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
