I'm trying to repair a debian-9 root volume by first attaching it to an

qvm-block attach tempvm lvm:qubes_dom0/vm-debian-9-root
qvm-block attach tempvm dom0:qubes_dom0/vm-debian-9-root
qvm-block attach tempvm dom0:/dev/mapper/qubes_dom0-vm--debian--9--root
qvm-block generally allow to attach only devices listed by it (qvm-block
ls). VM volumes are specifically excluded there.

I'd propose alternative approach for fixing debian-9: enable debug mode,
boot it, login (you'll have VGA console), then remove
xserver-xorg-legacy package. It should fix the GUI there.

Already had it in debug mode; Just discovered you have to wait several minutes for the console. But I removed xserver-xorg-legacy and its still not right. After waiting a minute I can get xterm to run but Gnome stuff (gnome-terminal) is broken:

> Error constructing proxy for org.gnome.Terminal:/org/gnome/Terminal/Factory0: Failed to execute child process "dbus-launch" (No such file or directory)

FWIW, I did an upgrade of a debian-8 template and that seems good so far.
