No, I mean running 8/stable, no other repos active. Would dom0 running uefi matter to the VM As for the rest, I've rerun every step a few times, so I can't imagine I missed anything. update-grub2 gave me the message below, but according to the qubes howto page, those errors don't matter. Anyway, thanks for your replies / time, I guess I'll poke around the log etc a bit more. ----- user@debian-8:/boot$ sudo update-grub2 Generating grub configuration file ...
