I recommend you don't delete anything before you made sure it works. Maybe backup the whole drive, or pull a copy of all data on it to another drive. Just to be safe. I also recommend you wait a bit for more answers, there may be ways to save your system yet. Your AppVM data should be saved here; /var/lib/qubes/appvms/ Your Templates data should be saved here; /var/lib/qubes/vm-templates In general have a look at the base folder /var/lib/qubes/ I never did a rescue this way, so I don't know if this is sufficient. But I believe it is all you need, and then you can create new AppVM's with the same name (important, must be same names), and then just drag and drop the AppVM files in there. But it's best you have the confirmation of someone who's done this before, however, this should at least get you started. Your system may also be rescued if someone knows how to fix it. By any chance, did you try use Grub to boot a different older kernel? By default Qubes (and other modern *nix's) save up to 3 kernels at a time. So you should have 2 older kernels. Maybe they work better with AEM? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
