When this has come up in the past on the list the answer has been to delete the saved dvm file and to recreate it, add customization, and then run qvm-create-default-template again. If you want to check the script operations, look at /usr/lib/qubes/init/mount-dirs.sh and /usr/lib/qubes/init/setup-dvm-home.sh They are simple scripts, so it shouldnt take much debugging. unman -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
