I restored my system from a laptop running Qubes 4.0 recently The template for my gpg domain is based on debian-10. I restored both the gpg domain and the template into the new system, but the gpg domain won't start
It seems to get stuck waiting for the xvdd device to attach to the VM. /var/log/xen/console/guest-gpg.log blkfront: xvda: flush diskcache: enabled; persistent grants;: enabled; indirect descriptors: enabled; bounce buffer: enabled xvda: xvda1 xvda2 xvda3 blkfront: xvdb: flush diskcache: enabled; persistent grants;: enabled; indirect descriptors: enabled; bounce buffer: enabled blkfront: xvdc: flush diskcache: enabled; persistent grants;: enabled; indirect descriptors: enabled; bounce buffer: enabled xenbus_probe_frontend: Waiting for devices to initialize: 25s..20s..15s...10s...5s...0s... before the VM shuts down If I boot another VM (ssh /lan) which uses the same template, I get this instead blkfront: xvda: flush diskcache: enabled; persistent grants;: enabled; indirect descriptors: enabled; bounce buffer: enabled xvda: xvda1 xvda2 xvda3 blkfront: xvdb: flush diskcache: enabled; persistent grants;: enabled; indirect descriptors: enabled; bounce buffer: enabled blkfront: xvdc: flush diskcache: enabled; persistent grants;: enabled; indirect descriptors: enabled; bounce buffer: enabled blkfront: xvdd: flush diskcache: enabled; persistent grants;: enabled; indirect descriptors: enabled; bounce buffer: enabled ... .. Waiting for /dev/xvdd device... /dev/xvdd: Can't open blockdev ... VM boots anyway I googled that line and see references to /var/log/xen/xen-hotplug.log - this file is empty I'm wondering how old that VM is, maybe its come from Qubes 3.2 -> 4.0 -> 4.1 and finally it's running into bother? Other VM's seem to boot from that template which is odd, I'm going to try transfer the data to a fresh qube, transfer THAT to the new system and hopefully it works, but otherwise I'm at a loss here -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
