First, thanks to all the developers and contributors to Qubes. This is incredible software!
I've got Qubes R3.2 installed into an SSD. That SSD has the following partitions: /boot (Qubes) / (Qubes) /UNENCRYPTED - An ext4 filesystem I'd like to mount /UNENCRYPTED from one of my appvms automatically on appVM startup. So far, I can only do it manually by starting the VM, attaching the "/dev/sda3" device, and mounting "/dev/xvdi" within the VM. I suspect that a persistent mount should be possible with the following code in the appVM's .conf file: <disk type='block' device='disk'> <driver name='phy'/> <source dev='/dev/sda3'/> <target dev='xvde' bus='xen'/> </disk> along with an entry in /etc/fstab of the AppVM to use /dev/xvde once created. Unfortunately, I have not been able to test this solution because: 1) If I create the modification directly in the /var/lib/qubes/appvms/foobar/foobar.conf file, the foobar.conf file gets overwritten instead of used. (I think this happens at appVM startup) 2) If I create the modification in /var/lib/qubes/appvms/foobar/a_different.conf, the .conf file is never overwritten, but my changes to the "config" entry of /var/lib/qubes/qubes.xml gets overwritten on any updates from the Qubes VM Manager. i.e. it's not seeing my dom0 'vi' edits to this file, and instead clobbers it. 3) Trying "qvm-prefs -s foobar config a_different.conf" returns "ERROR: Wrong propery name: 'config'" I'm sure there's something I'm misunderstanding, and I appreciate any advice from the community.
