Here is where I am:

1.  I attached usb drive to sys-usb
2.  Went to sys-usb: Files, Other Locations, then into the USB drive
3.  Copied windows 7 iso file to other AppVM (ie, win7 VMName)
4.  Found windows 7 iso in win7 VM using search.  I then moved the iso to the 
Downloads folder.
5.  Used this command in Don0 Terminal: qvm-start win7 
--cdrom=win7:/Downloads/win7.iso
6.  The terminal returned: "This VM does not support attaching drives."  (FYI, 
I also tried to run the iso from sys-usb VM but I received the same message for 
I tried to move it and try as well)

What am I doing wrong?

Use the command from dom0:

qvm-start |start a vm
win7  | name of the vm to start
--cdrom=/path/to/isofile.iso  | the vm has a cdrom with an isofile in the 
folder /path/to/

Now use the following

qvm-start win7 --cdrom=vmname:/path/to/isofile.iso  |vmname here is the name of 
the vm where your iso is (e.g. sys-usb) and the /path/to/isofile.iso in that vm.

Now use the following

I thought this was the command to find the iso in the cdrom drive: 

qvm-start win7 --cdrom=/dev/cdrom

I don't have the iso file on dvd unfortunately.  What can I do if I have it 
only on usb?  How do I figure out the location of the usb file ?

the command you mention does not copy a iso to dom0. Copyingfiles to dom0
is discouraged because dom0 should be protected from external possible
attacks.

the command you mention tells dom0 where to find an iso to start a HVM and
particularly tells to look for the iso into a cdrom.

[qubes-users] Windows 7 Install

2017-05-24 Thread James Chi
Hello all,

I am not only new to Qubes, I am also new to linux so I am going to have to 
learn a lot.  I would appreciate any help.

I have a windows 7 iso on usb.  I created a usb vm called sys-usb.  Now I am 
trying to copy the iso file to dom0 based on the following:

"qvm-start win7 --cdrom=/usr/local/iso/win7_en.iso

The above command assumes the installation ISO was transferred to Dom0 (copied 
using dd command from an installation CDROM for example)."

Can someone help me figure out this step?  Sorry for the newbie question.  I 
will have lots of these.

[qubes-users] Windows 7 install doesn't work with 'xen' video setting

2017-02-13 Thread rmflagg
Hi everyone,

   I just finished the install of Windows 7 Ultimate in Qubes 3.2 (R3.2).  The 
only problem is that Windows only works with the custom config that I used for 
the installation with the 'xen' video setting changed to 'cirrus.'

   What could I have done/didn't do?  Anyone else have this problem?

Thanks!

[qubes-users] Windows 7 Install Hangs At Starting Page

2016-11-24 Thread david . wylie
I just get the "Starting Windows" and the glowing logo on a black screen. Left 
it for an hour, nothing else happens.

I found this which doesn't seem relevant (or if it is I can't make the 
connection) :

https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/qubes-users/starting$20windows$20hang%7Csort:relevance/qubes-users/2q19jFeTFGk/DgL6a67_CAAJ

Is there anything generally I should be looking for?
