[qubes-users] Certified Hardware - Why purism and not system76 or thinkpenguin?

Purism is selling snake oil and taking money away from the honest companies that admit they're selling a re-badged quanta laptop that will never ever have libre firmware. Here is a reddit post with more info about the situation (yeah its from leah but whatever its true)

[qubes-users] Resize dom0

There are instructions how to resize a VM at https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/resize-root-disk-image/ - but this cannot apply to dom0 - because it requires stopping the VM and then running commands in dom0. What would be the procedure for resizing dom0 root partition? -- Zbigniew Lukasiak

Create a mount unit in your template of the Deb VM, which does the mount. Have it WantedBy=multi-user.target. Enable it. Add a ConditionPathExists=/var/run/qubes-service/mediamount to the unit. Power off the template and the Deb VM. Thru Qubes Manager, add a Qubes service to the DebVM,
