I did a full backup a week ago. I think I'll do another fresh install, then restore it to last week. I lost a week's worth of work. That's what I get for slacking on backups. I'll have to hold off on ANY updates, until I hear something on this issue. -- You received this message because you

I just noticed on the Fedora forums they released Fedora 30 today. Qubes runs Fedora 29, so I don't know if today's updates had anything to do with f30, but it might be related. Checking to see if anyone else on fedora forums has similar issue as mine. -- You received this message because

Yes, that worked. I'm back to a fresh install. I didn't know we could do that. Damn, I was a little hasty formatting my drive. That's okay, I didn't lose much. If I try upgrading again, it will break again. Maybe whatever fedora broke will get fixed in the coming weeks. I don't like the

[qubes-users] qubes backup and restore question

2019-05-25 Thread drokmed
What is the point of backing up a qube, if you can't restore to it? I'm restoring a full backup, and instead of restoring to qubes, it's creating new ones with different names. WTF! What the hell am I supposed to do now? Delete the original qubes, and rename the restores? I'm guessing that
