dd if=/dev/cdrom of=/home/user/win7.iso bs=1M


BTW, any suggested amount of RAM or HD space to allocate in the HVM for
win7 ?


That I don't know.


I don't see any reference to bcedit  or how/where I would disable
driver signing  sigh


It's a windows command. See

[qubes-users] dd command to creat an .iso from the win7 cdrom please

[yrebstv]

dd command to creat an .iso from the win7 cdrom please 

I'm trying to create a win7 HVM and am getting stuck at the magic
glowing windows logo and I discovered in the reference doc's eventually:
https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/2488

only problem, Is I don't think the original doc, actually gives the dd
command arguments etc,  and somehow I'm not linuxy enough to know it. 


2)
BTW, any suggested amount of RAM or HD space to allocate in the HVM for
win7 ?

3)
Lastly, I don't think I understand step #8 
"When windows is successfully installed, disable driver signing with
bcedit (see install docs)" . 



.if these docs are meant
https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/windows-appvms/
https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/windows-appvms/ (btw  there seem to be two
different pages loading with the same URL )

https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/hvm/

I don't see any reference to bcedit  or how/where I would disable 
driver signing  sigh
