Re: [qubes-users] Qubes does not boot any more. Very abruptly. Who can help?

2021-10-30 Thread 'awokd' via qubes-users

Michael Singer:

I have just solved the problem; the system starts up normally again. The 
solution was to overwrite the second and faulty installation on the pcie 
nvme disk. I do not understand why my working sata installation scans 
the pci mass storage device at startup. Wait, I just remembered that I 
read a long time ago that something like this can happen with Qubes and 
Xen. Is there maybe a way to prevent pci mass storage devices from being 
automatically scanned and mounted in dom0 afterwards?


Strange it broke without any changes, but glad it's working now. One way 
to avoid scan finding anything might be to use different encryption 
passwords between installations. Seems like there should be some way to 
blacklist specific mass storage devices from scan, though.

Re: [qubes-users] Extract image file from Qubes 4.x

2021-10-30 Thread 'awokd' via qubes-users

r.wiesb...@web.de:

In Qubes 4.x the images are no longer ordinary files accessible from the
dom0 file system. So how can I extract them as VM images (.img files in
Q 3.x) in Qubes 4.x? In the wiki I only find how to delete, but not how
to extract an image fom LVM. Thank you.


You can extract the raw private drive contents with something like:

sudo cp /dev/mapper/qubes_dom0-vm--vmname--private 
/pathtodestinationfolder/vmname.raw
