OK, if I click on the Devices widget I can indeed see all the partitions on my internal SSD, with an arrow next to each. If I click the arrow I get a list of qubes, which I believe allows me to attach the selected partition to where I want. However, when I do this I can't find the partition in the Files application in the qube. Think I'm still missing something... Also, am I correct that this attachment will only persist until I close the qube? Thanks -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
