it seems google is having fun with me and auto-deletes messages as I reply... given the number of deleted messages we're seeing lately, maybe I'm not the only one having this google issue... well, I'll try again. Try look here for your AppVM's /var/lib/qubes/appvms and here for your templates /var/lib/qubes/vm-templates and in general /var/lib/qubes/ for anything VM related. I'm not sure if you can restore it all this way, I haven't done this before my self. It might be a good idea to wait for confirmation from someone who's done it before, or wait and don't delete/overwrite anything before you got confirmation on this method. However, I believe the approach is to copy this folder /var/lib/qubes and then create identical named VM's, shut them down, and then systematically and manually replace the VM's data. Be mindful that this "might" be a bad idea to do for templates, it's probably best you only do it with AppVM's. Also there may still be a way to save your system rather than salvaging, for example did you try load the other 2 kernels? (normal 3 kernels are kept at any time and Grub should be able to switch between them). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
