I have to say that the problem here was the absence of qubes-manager: I wasn't able to see where to set the root partition dimensions. Also, I am using i3, so the idea of moving "all the relevant stuff" to the start menu is like saying "we really, really hate our i3 users" :D Cheers, Fab -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

In the settings dialog for a VM its the "System storage max size" item which you can change. Be aware that the VM likely needs to restart to access the extra space. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

[qubes-users] Qubes 4rc3: More space needed on the / filesystem.
Hello everyone, I am trying to install texlive on a fedora-26 template vm. The package is quite big, nevertheless it is correctly downloaded. After this, when the actual installation process would be supposed to start, it fails with the message: At least *MB more space needed on the / filesystem I have tried to use qvm-block to attach some cache file to the vm (as suggested, for instance, in ( https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/template/fedora/upgrade-21-to-23/ ) but giving qvm-block attach fedora-26 cachefile.img produces the error qvm-block: error: backend vm 'dom0' doesn't expose device 'cachefile.img' How do I solve this? I read around that qvm-block is buggy with loop devices, but I am not sure this is the kind of problem I am facing. I also supposed this may have something to do with having a sys-usb VM (the references I found to qvm-block usage are all very outdated and antecedent to the sys-usb era), but then again I don't know precisely how should I proceed.
