[qubes-users] Re: Unable to Attach ISO to Windows HVM

2017-11-05 Thread Person
I’m still going to try to fix this problem, because I heard that apparently 
Windows 10 installs and runs fine as an HVM on Qubes. However, inter-VM 
interaction doesn’t work.

Has anyone here ever successfully installed and ran Windows 10 on Qubes 3.2?

Okay, I’ve been retrying the commands for a while now, and there is still the 
same problem.

Since the VM actually tries to attach to the ISO, I do not believe that the 
command was mistyped.

Also, the ISO is an official ISO, so there should be nothing wrong with it.

I deleted and recreated the VM, and it still has the same problem. 

The problem seems to lie in xendriverdomain.service. I don’t have it installed, 
and I don’t know how to install it. Also, the last time I set up a Standalone 
VM, this did not happen.

I retried the commands.

My Windows 10 HVM actually starts up, but it is stuck on the Windows screen 
with a buffering sign. Then, after a few seconds, it closes and a notification 
appears: “Oops! Something went wrong.”

I currently have Qubes 3.2. Some of the advanced boot settings on the HVM 
cannot be found, and I assume it’s because I have 3.4 instead of 4.0.

I’m also quite sure I typed in the ISO path correctly: 
/home/user/Downloads/path-to-iso. 

The problem is that I’m not to sure if backing
up and then installing the ISO will work.

It did not work on my system either, It appears to be a python code issue that 
prevents Qubes from booting the iso files. 
I suppose the best solution would be to install Windows 10 from Qubes 3.2, then 
back it up to a Qubes-backup, and then restore Windows 10 in Qubes 10 from the 
backup. This has worked with Windows 7. Just be sure to give it enough RAM 
since it won't start easily without plenty of RAM, when without the 
qubes-windows-tools to dynamically sort out the RAM management. 


Thoughts on the details: It seems to be appearing within the Qubes tools, 
specifically the --cdrom= part, and its associated python code. I'm not a 
programmer, or an expert, but from what I can see, this won't work until the 
Qubes team fix the python error, from either a new python library or the python 
code someone from the Qubes team wrote, whichever it is. If the former, then 
we'll have to wait for other developers to fix it before anything happens, I 
suppose?

There were some python dom0 updates today, I tried to install Windows 10 both 
before and after updating, including restarting Qubes just to be 100% sure. 
None worked, same python error is still around. 

It appears that the graphical method runs into same python errors, but without 
logs I can't be sure. 

Also I've tried installed from both AppVM's and from Dom0. Given that backups 
are bugged/slow from dom0, apparently due to python also. So I thought it might 
make a difference here too, but sadly it did not.

For now, it seems the only solution is to install Windows 10 somewhere else, 
for example in Qubes 3.2, and then back it up and transfer it to Qubes 4. At 
least to my knowledge.

Weird :/ 
I'll give it a try with Win10 later today or tomorrow, I'll share with you if I 
can repeat the issue or if it works. Stay tuned.

Instead try use the graphical tool, it should work.
Do the qvm-create etc. first to make the HVM, then afterwards go to the 
Qube-menu and select the new Qube menu you just made, open VM-Settings for this 
VM, and click "Advanced". Here click on the "Boot qube from CDROM". Which 
despite it's name, works for USB, local files, local files in another VM, and 
of course an actual CD-Rom drive as well. 

If it doesn't work, then at least you made sure you didn't misstype anything.

Also yes, Windows 10 should technically work in Qubes, you just won't get Qubes 
supported tools, such as text and file sharing between Win10 and the rest of 
Qubes system, no easy internet setup, graphic/screen Qubes driver, and so forth.
Basically, it should run, but it might not run optimal. You may be able to 
passthrough some USB devices, or iso files, but otherwise, it'll be completely 
isolated in its own little world. Unlike Windows 7, which can properly 
communicate with Qubes. Basically Windows 10 will theoretically appear like 
Windows 7, just without the Qubes-Windows-Tools installed.

Not trying to give false hope, but yet the same error may mean you mistyped
the qvm-start line, for example the iso full path.

You'd need Xen disk drivers installed within the VM for this to work. Xen 
drivers (along the rest of Qubes Windows Tools) haven't been ported to Windows 
10 yet.
