I do not know the official stance or method, but I symbolically link from the

Mine is always available so I don't know if Qubes would boot if it weren't, but
it is a thought...obviously the drive would need to be available to start the
appVM's located thereon.
This is what I did on Qubes 3.2. On Qubes 4.0, I used the new thin pool
provisioning, so the symlink trick doesn't work anymore...

Ah, but if the path must be "provisioned" in order to boot qubes itself, that
sounds like a more difficult way to do it.
The workaround would be to have either A) installed Qubes with a regular
filesystem (without thin LVM) or B) setup a secondary but "always
available" non-LVM pool on your internal drive. Then symlinks can be used.
@Stefan: Would you post this as a feature-request issue? If not, I may
do so because having Qubes support removable storage pools automatically
could be valuable to a lot of people.
