[qubes-users] Can Qubes 4 do SVM VM snapshots like in 3.2?
In 3.2, the DVM stored a snapshot of the booted system so that new dispvm's could be booted very quickly. This doesn't seem to happen in 4.0, which cuases them to take over 30 seconds to start. I recall reading somewhere that 4.0 would support creating snapshots for all VM's, not just DVM's. Is this true? And if so, how do I do it? I woul dhave assumed there would be a qvm-prefs setting for it, but I haven't been able to find anything.

Okay good to know! I remember you advised to get the mainboard in new condition and everything else used. Is that more for security/privacy reasons or just to ensure to buy a functional mainboard that hasn't been degraded by years of 24/7 use ? Because right now, I am sitting on the fence, wether I should really buy the mainboard new. Sometimes I see used mainboards with almost 50% discount, so buying a used one would make quite a difference. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

Probably true ;) I just thought I spend a little bit more now to have a solution that serves me well for the next couple of years to come :D I plan to use the machine for video rendering, gaming and running quite a few VMs + HVMs in parallel. > Although an advantage of the KGPE-D16 is that it includes the $50 module > needed to run OpenBMC - your choice.

Do you by any chance know for sure, if the 6386 works with Coreboot ? Because on the Coreboot website they advise to avoid the whole 63xx series, due to the "microcode update" issue. I initially also wanted to go for a 63xx CPU but due to their advise I thought about switching to 62xx to avoid all those problems. Maybe that can be solved ? Because the 63xx is only insignificantly more expensive than the 62xx CPUs...

From what I found, Librecore also seems to a fork of Coreboot, they only remove all the blobs. But my main concern are Intel AMT/ME/vPro - so in other words any remote access / backdoor, so I guess I could live with Coreboot. I am going for the KGPE-D16 and it seems they really have put in a lot of effort to support it. Also Raptor Engineering seems to do a lot to make KGPE-D16 and coreboot work. I planned to go for a 62xx or 63xx CPU, but probably for a 62xx, because I read the 63xx series has a lot of issues with coreboot/libreboot and needs firmware / "microcode" updates to work properly - like you mentioned as well. Do you know if not only the KCMA-D8 but also the KGPE-D16 is also fully supported ? Should be, right ? > Libreboot is like an anarchist punk scene complete with a jerk in charge > (ex: the FSF related drama) - although she has done quite a bit for the > free hardware movement (75K+ for the KGPE-D16 and KCMA-D8 board ports, > both entirely libre and RYF certified) and has finally paid her debt for > the KCMA-D8 port so I respect her a little bit. > > > > Is one better than the other for Qubes OS ? > If you compile coreboot for say the KCMA-D8 (libre board I recommend > that supports v4.0) you're getting the same thing as libreboot if you > don't include the microcode update (note: microcode update needed in > either OS or firmware for 43xx CPU's due to a very bad exploit which > doesn't effect the slightly less fast 42xx CPU's) > > All the libreboot boards work without the binaries contrary to what > holger said, you aren't going to boot up and find out there isn't any > video or w/e - leah laid out a lot of cash to ensure that. > > I use coreboot. Thanks for your help! I just told Holger I probably would postpone the installation of Coreboot, because I have issues with compiling the ROM. I know that I won't have problems with flashing the BIOS chip myself - my main problem is getting the settings right in the Coreboot config console (i am using "$ make nconfig" to compile). But I am overwhelmed by all the settings. E.g. which payload (Seabios, GRUB2,etc) to use and which other settings for the KGPE-D16 ? So if that would be solved, I might definitely consider to use Coreboot in the near future. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

Doing kernel code signing via coreboot with grub payload is a much better security feature, if you lock your flash chip the only way to flash will be externally (with a tester clip) so it is very secure. Okay good to know, then I'll discard TXT from now on ;) * You'd be able to play new video games at high settings in a VM, run a bunch of VMs or do both at the same time with dual 4386 CPU's. * You could use it as a gigabit vpn router with a router distro. Another option for more juice is the pricier KGPE-D16 (same featureset but with more RAM slots, support for socket g34 16 core cpu's and more PCI-e lanes/slots) and get 16 core CPU's you would be able to have 32 cores total with the opteron 6386 (best G34 cpu) and thus for instance have three people playing games at high settings on the same PC plus many VM's. Sounds perfect! I think you actually convinced me to go for the KGPE-D16 + Opteron 6386 + 64GB RAM then :) Even just one 6386 is a speed demon but if you want you can eventually upgrade to two if you really wanna be cooking with gas. Although I would recommend saving money and by getting a KCMA-D8 and a 4386 - you can always buy a second 4386 if you want more speed. If you have 32 cores honestly they'll probably be sitting idle most of the time (mine are), as you'd be compiling everything in a matter of seconds. Although an advantage of the KGPE-D16 is that it includes the $50 module needed to run OpenBMC - your choice. Also for the KGPE-D16 one can also buy an 8 core 6328 which is better for games than the slower per core speed of the 6386 and slightly faster than the D8's socket C32 4386 (btw according to the dev one can mix and match a 6328 and a 6386 so say one for games one for compiles) as hardly any games use more than 8 cores let alone 16. Now I only need to find a trusted seller where I can buy the mainboard (new/affordable price) with EU shipping. Everything except mainboard can be used (RAM, CPU, AMD GPU). It would be awesome if you could tell me where to buy the hardware cheap. Dunno about that, but you should ask on the coreboot mailinglist. Usual retail: KGPE-D16 - $400 KCMA-D8 - $250-300 CPU: 4386 - $100-130 6386 - $100-200 Preferably via e-mail (marek.jenk...@openmailbox.org) for privacy or in your reply over here if you don't want to reveal your e-mail address.

I think Coreboot is an interesting topic, but to be honest, it seems quite complex. I don't really compile code myself and have no idea which settings + payload I need to pick to compile the ROM for flashing. And flashing also requires some skill + equipment. Additionally, I read some people have issues with Qubes + SeaBios. Maybe I postpone the whole thing to a later day when I have more time to learn something new :) Also, because I don't really think I need that level of security that protects someone to tamper with my BIOS :D I just didn't like the idea of having a "backdoor" in my system (Intel ME, AMT, vPro), thats how I learned about Coreboot. So the final question: If I choose an older mainboard from AMD for example, which doesn't have all those bad technologies built-in, I am still much more secure than the average guy with a new Intel CPU, right ?
