So using the VM manager i created a Win7 HVM (not a HVM template) I copied over the Win7.iso to a the user directory in dom0
using "qvm-run --pass-io <src-vm> 'cat /path/to/file_in_src_domain' > /path/to/file_name_in_dom0" And ran "qvm-start win7 --cdrom=/home/myusername/Win7.iso" ============= First attempt ============= HVM loaded, got to the stage where it starts installing files, and got an error reading file or something along those lines. I assumed the Win7_64bit.iso i downloaded from microsoft got corrupted, so I re-downloaded the .iso ============== Second attempt ============== I deleted the previous Win7 HVM, and created a new one Copied over the iso and ran command to start HVM again. Whats happening is Now is the HVM doesnt pass the windows logo stage. it just sits there and glows. I dont think that i should even see the glowing windows logo at this stage of the install. I suspect that even tho i deleted & re-created the Win7 HVM, its still trying to boot of the failed partial install. =============== Is there a way to check the old Win7 HVM has been completely deleted? Could this be another issue? Cheers Is -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
