If you: a) use dd to image an iso onto a flash drive, you now have an iso 9660 file system. It's not meant to be written ad-hoc from mount in an OS. If, instead, you: b) extract the files from the ISO to an appropriate r/w file system partition on a flash drive (FAT, eFAT, ext3, NTFS) then you can add/modify/delete files to your heart's content. However, with the latter approach, the mastered-for-ISO boot chain might only be expecting an ISO 9660 file system and therefore fail (in some cases) if it's not running off of one. Hence why there are often very detailed settings required to properly write some ISOs to flash drives and still end up with bootable media.

In first step: "1. I write .iso via Rufus in DD mode." I already copied this files on USB. It means that when I open usb flash drive I see not .iso file, I see files and folders which I can't edit because it is not writable. I don't know, maybe it is the problem of DD mode writing of .iso, but I tried also usual .iso mode in Rufus and when I am changing anything then I got this: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1zGI53XZ6f-8BoX28XueuuAmDQmFVf4FT/view - 8GB flash drive https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ms_p53vRnSMy7OTjYFuSBlMH2ULvypLh/view - 1TB SSD drive Or you mean another method of copy files to USB drive? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

The only case where it wouldnt appear in the work qube would be where it was installed in /home/user in the template. Check the path to library in the template and confirm it is there in the qube. You may need to adjust your path in the qube. In dom0 you need to use qubes-dom0-update - I suggest you read this: https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/software-update-dom0 In dom0 and in templates, there is no direct internet connection, and updates (whether rpm or deb) run by proxy in an updateVM. https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/software-update-vm/ in the section on "Updates proxy" may help. unman -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

(It's an image of a CD/DVD) As awokd has suggested, you need to copy the files to a USB drive, or similar, and edit them there. Then create a new iso image and boot from that. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

[qubes-users] Qubes 4.0 Cannot change desktop background
Hi list, On a fresh Qubes 4.01 install with updates applied : I copied a couple images to the user's home in dom0 and would like to use them as a wallpaper. But when I open the "Desktop settings" I cannot navigate the filsystem : all the directories and files in the "Folder / Other" selection dialog are grayed out. Still I can manually type the path in the upper box and see the directories and files appear - so it doesnt' seem to be a rights issue - but they're still greyed out. When I'm back to the pictures selection box, even though the correct folder name is displayed, I can anyhow only see the images from the original picture folder. I checked the rights of the files and folders and everything seems to be OK, still I cannot navigate and select what I want. Any clue appreciated :) Best regards. ॐ -- Swâmi Petaramesh PGP 9076E32E -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

[qubes-users] Structure of qubes
I wanted to understand the tree structure of qubes. So my guess is this. dom0 is the owner of every other thing. There are 4 template VMs, fedora, debian, 2 whonix ones. When a domain restarts, it takes it settings from the template on which it is based and it's own home directory and other couple ones which are just in it, I guess stored in ROM. I created another fedoraDev template for my development purposes on which my work qube is based. work has no net access. When I installed pandas in my fedoraDev template, it didn't reflect in work after restarts. When I changed work netVM to sys-firewall and run "pip install pandas", there's no internet! Also, I want to install nvidia drivers from rpmfusion for which I need to add repos. I don't know where is dnf is. It's in dom0 but it is not connected to internet. I need to make them in fedora. In my personal domain connected to internet, there's no dnf. I need to know the structure of qubes better to understand dnf and my python pandas installation. I'm certainly missing something. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
