I thought this was the command to find the iso in the cdrom drive: qvm-start win7 --cdrom=/dev/cdrom I don't have the iso file on dvd unfortunately. What can I do if I have it only on usb? How do I figure out the location of the usb file ? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
