I tried disabling wifi and reinstalling entire Qubes again (a 12 hour process on my USB 2.0 sticks) but ended up with same thing (actually, since I tried not creating root user this time, I had to manually start some services libvirtd relies on - had to add root user to qubes and libvirtd groups for that to work, and was finally back to the point, again, where the error is just default template missing). The /var/lib/qubes directory had full pack of 2G+ of template and kernel files, and after tracing through python code to decode assertion errors, I was convinced something in the templates did not get completely installed or configured (ie in both full Qubes OS install instances). rpm -ihv Packages/q/qubes-templates (after mounting the installer) said templates were already installed, so I did an rpm --reinstall instead. Then instead of missing template error I started to get no default_kernel, so did similar to Packages/k/qubes-kernel and was finally able to select template in qube creation, and qvm-ls finally displayed more than just AdminVM. Now, I have to figure out how to configure sys-net and connect it to another VM, but this seems to be another matter (Salt, Networking and Template VM documents seem to cover that). BTW, rpm reinstall for both packages ended with errors, but the VM still launched. Thanks for your suggestion - it helped a lot. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
