Re: [qubes-users] Can't Boot From Win10 Retail USB

Win10 runs as an HVM; the devs haven't finished building the Windows Tools for 
it. Within its limits it is fine.

[qubes-users] Can't Boot From Win10 Retail USB

2016-07-16 Thread rick . jeffries
Successful install of Qubes on a Dell Latitude E6510.

Thought I would attempt a Windows 10 HVM.  Creation of the HVM is fine; 
attempts to boot the VM from the retail media fail.  Although Dom0 sees the 
Microsoft retail USB, and I'm able to create a DD iso from it, I can't seem to 
get the VM to recognize the boot media when I start.  

the VM says:

ata0 slave: QEMU HARDDISK ATA-7 Hard-Drive (2048 MBytes)
ata1 slave: QUME DVD-ROM ATAPI-4 CD-Rom/DVD-Rom

iPXE (http://ipxe.org) 00:04.0 CA00PCI2.10 PMM+00100010+00113020 CA00

Press F12 for boot menu

Booting from CD-Rom 
14783MB medium detected (this is about the size of the windows USB stick)
CDROM boot failure code: 0005
Boot from CD-Rom failed: could not read the boot disk

Booting from Hard Disk...
Boot from Hard Disk failed: not a bootable disk

No bootable device.
Powering off in 30 seconds.

I've tried what seems like every permutation of adding an argument like 
--cdrom=/dev/sdb, cdrom=/path/to/win10.iso, drive=cdrom/dev/sdb, etc.  I've 
also used the GUI functions for using these paths as "additional drives."

I am fearing there is some anti-piracy doodad on the retail USB that prevents 
me from booting unless I'm booting, but I can't think of what that would be.  

New guy.  If you're going to drop a lot of cli-fu on me, go slowly.

Many thanks, 

Rick
