        If you use qvm-block in dom0 can you see the disk/partitions?


          Don't know, I'll give it a try and post back.


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?

they will be inserted in the appvm-qube as /dev/xvdi, /dev/xvdk ...
[vd = virtual device, I guess]. The existence of a device does not mean
mounting it. I do that by hand: in a terminal, type

   sudo mount /dev/xvdi /media

will mount the attached device to /media and allow file access. If it is
a luks-encrypted system, do

   sudo crypsetup luksOpen  /dev/xvdi  MYSSDVOL
   sudo mount  /dev/mapper/MYSSDVOL    /media

   cheers
