Restart your UpdateVM (or just reboot) if you haven't already. Is your
disk full?

I tried restarting/rebooting, and there is plenty of available disk space. 
I did, however, find a somewhat cumbersome solution:


Upgrade fedora-23 to fedora-24, upgrade fedora-24 to fedora-25, and 
finally upgrade fedora-25 to fedora-26. I followed the steps outlined 
under "Upgrading", https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/templates/fedora/.

[qubes-users] Installing Fedora 26 template VM in Qubes 3.2

2018-05-18 Thread Eivind K. Dovik

Hi,

According to https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/supported-versions/#templatevms, 
Qubes 3.2 supports Fedora 26. I have successfully installed the Debian 9 
template in the past, however when trying to install the Fedora 26 
template using sudo qubes-dom0-update qubes-template-fedora-26 I get the 
following error:


[MIRROR] qubes-template-fedora-26-4.0.0-201711170141.noarch.rpm: Curl 
error (23): Failed writing received data to disk/application for

I get similar errors when I try qubes-template-fedora-24 and 
qubes-template-fedora-25.


Any suggestions?


Best,
Eivind K. Dovik

 Luckily, with Qubes it is easy to set a firewall rule so that your email
 AppVM can only contact with your email server.
 NB that some of these leaks are dns-based, so ideally you would not
 allow it to perform any dns query, either.

 Best regards

can you give an example to the steps to   make such a fw rule,   if it's that 
simple  please ?




Through Qubes VM Manager, I've added the following firewall rule:

- Deny network access except ...
- IP address of my email server

This works fine.

Hi there,

I dedicate more than 700GB to Qubes OS, which I installed in a dualboot with my

In the VM settings the maximum size does not go far enough.

It works fine for the less demanding areas.

Any idea about how I can work those set of data in Qubes 3.2?

Hi, Reza.

I am running Qubes 3.2 as well, and I'm running domains that have maximum
size > 50GB (my email-domain, for instance, has 64GB for private storage).

Where are you changing your settings?

Hi Eivind,
That's what I do to change the size:
1) I stop the VM
2) I select it in the VM Manager (in DOM0)
3) I click on "settings" icon (the wheel)and I increase the "private storage max 
size" from 2048 to its max value 10240 (written right below as 'system storage max size').



Reza,

You can increase the private storage size without stopping the VM. Are you 
positive you are changing "private storage" and not "system storage"?

I tried installing Qubes 4.0 in legacy mode at first. I was presented with 
the legacy-installer, and after hitting "Return" the screen went black. 
UEFI-installer worked like charm, but booting after install did not (stuck 
in boot-loop, no grub-menu).

I run Qubes 4.0 on T440p and it runs great.  500gb hdd and an i5 vPro CPU

I went and got the T440s today. I had prepared two USB drives: one with 
Qubes 3.2 and another with Qubes 4.0. I tried installing Qubes 4.0 first.  After setting 
boot to UEFI, I was able to install Qubes 4.0. After installing, I ran 
into problems when booting - ended up in a boot loop, never getting to the 
grub-screen (this occured no matter what boot settings I set in the BIOS).


After playing around with the different boot settings, I tried installing 
Qubes 3.2. This time, I had to do Legacy boot to get to the installer. 
Installing was a breeze, and I'm currently running Qubes 3.2. Wouldn't 
mind upgrading to 4.0. If anyone has a solution to my 
boot-loop-problem, I'd be thankful.
