I reinstalled it a few dozen times and realized it was because of the way that I configured the disks on the virtual image. Don't encrypt the disks or use an lvm.

Any way that you can try a different mirror? I just followed the (3) option successfully. However, 'http.debian.net' resolves to a different IP for me, so you might try tunneling your traffic to a different region. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

I could swear I did try that, but I'll do it again when I get home later on and let you know how it goes. It is very strange, cause VMs (including templates) update without any issue when doing it through the GUI (Right click -> Update VM) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

Hi, I tried this over the weekend, but can't get it to work for some reason. I've tried the 3 methods: 1) Create a HVM and use the offical ISO to install the system or convert a Virtual Image: Generic libvirt error saying it couldn't start the VM after running qvm-start 2)Clone the Qubes OS Debian image and turn it into a Kali Linux distribution using katoolin: After cloning my Debian 8 template, and modifying the repos, when I do a dist-upgrade I keep getting these errors: E: Failed to fetch http://http.debian.net/debian/pool/main/p/python-iniparse/python-iniparse_0.4-2.2_all.deb Unable to connect to 10.137.255.254:8082: E: Failed to fetch http://http.debian.net/debian/pool/main/s/sshpass/sshpass_1.06-1_amd64.deb Unable to connect to 10.137.255.254:8082: [...] It seems it can't connect to the update proxy for some reason...

Hello, the better way is to create Kali template or standalone VM. Here is the guide: https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/pentesting/kali/ the advantage it integrates better into Qubes.
