Here is a detailed guide to install Linux Mint in Qubes OS 4.0.3: 1) Open the "Qubes Settings" of the domain from where you will download Linux Mint and expand the private max. storage size to 3 GiB larger than the existing storage size (just to be certain that you have enough storage space for the ISO file - else the download process will stop somewhere on the way). 2) Open the domains Firefox browser and download Linux Mint from https://linuxmint.com/ 3) Click on "Create Qubes VM" in the Qubes Menu. 4) Give the HVM a name, choose "Empty standalone qube (install your own OS)" and select "launch settings after creation". 5) In "Qube Settings": Set "System storage max. size" to 20.240 MiB, click on Advanced and set "Initial memory" to 4000 MiB, click on "Apply" and then click on "Boot qube from CDROM" and choose the Vm and the ISO-file and clicke on apply. 6) Choose "Start Linux Mint" in the Grub menu in the newly appeared window. 7) Click on the "Install Mint" icon on the desktop of Linux Mint and follow the installation guide. 8) Choose to make a format and full installation on the sda drive and finish the installation guide. 9) Restart Linux Mint. 10) Press ENTER when you see a message appear that you has to press Enter when you have detached the installation media. 11) Start the Linux Mint HVM up again and a new window appear. If there after a short time appears a white cursor that just continues blinking/flashing, then: a) Shut the Linux Mint HVM down b) Open the dom0 terminal c) Execute this command: "qvm-features <qube-name> video-model cirrus" d) Start the Linux Mint HVM again. 12) Open the network manager, go into the settings for the registered connection, go to IPv4-settings, choose "Manual" as "Method" and add a new one and write the IP, Netmask and Gateway address that is found in the "QubeSettings" for the HVM. 13) To pass thru a USB device to Linux Mint, read here: https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/standalone-and-hvm/#assigning-pci-devices-to-hvms <https://www.google.com/url?q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.qubes-os.org%2Fdoc%2Fstandalone-and-hvm%2F%23assigning-pci-devices-to-hvms&sa=D&sntz=1&usg=AFQjCNGKbzcuqBV9gUEPdZcxgj_u1KokiA> 14) Remaining: Making it possible to copy and pass content between the Linux Mint HVM and other VM's. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
