[qubes-users] sys-net will not start after windows installed as a templateHVM
sys-net and sys-firewall were both running fine before I installed Win 7 x64. qvm-start sys-net fails with the message: ERROR: PCI device 01:00.0 does not exist (domain sys-net) lspci confirms the device 01:00.0 does not in fact exist -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

The command qvm-block -a Win7 dom0:sdb returns ERROR: VM Win7 not running. This seems like a catch 22 since I can't start the VM because there's no bootable file system yet nor can I attach a device to a not running VM. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

Win7 is an HVM template that has no boot information and therefore won't start. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

[qubes-users] How to install Win 7 x64 from a USB stick
I'm a total newbie. I've been searching for a howto to boot the Win7 domain from a USB stick so that Windows installs from the USB stick. I went thru the process to attach the PCI channel using qvm-pci -a command in Dom0. When I checked the Win7 Devices in VM Manager I see 00:14.0 USB Controller ... What I can't figure out is how to get the domain to boot from the USB stick nor have my searches been fruitful. When I try to boot the domain I get a PCI error that isn't displayed long enough for me to make a note of it. The log file for the domain in VM Manager is greyed out. I'm stuck. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
