Frédéric Pierret (fepitre):

Before end of the month we hope to have a testing ISO for dev purpose.
Currently we are on upgrading Fedora installer which have drastically
changed the way of creating ISO.


Awesome. I'll keep my eye out for it. Thanks.

 Is it *possible* to upgrade dom0 to, say, F30, if we wanted to? I
 seem to remember reading somewhere it's pretty much impossible, but
 I haven't been able to find that article.

 I have a newer machine, and I've found several hardware features
 that work under F30 but not F25 and not under Qubes even with the
 same kernel version as tested in F30 (suggesting the Fedora
 userland plays a role too).

 It seems like the 5+ version lag could be holding back a lot of
 potential Qubes users. Especially considering Qubes/Xen is quite
 hardware-sensitive to begin with.

Not as far as I know, but Marek and Frédéric (CCed) would know more
about this.


Even if in theory, this is possible but that would mean to patch R4.0
with a lot of adjustments in upstream R4.1. I would discourage such
attempt because there is major differences between fc25 and fc30. That
would also mean doing the work we have done for going to dom0 fc29.

We are going to use dom0 fc31 instead of fc29 for next release 4.1 and
there is also other troubles like python3 migration as python2 is
assumed deprecated in Fedora 31.

It sounds like your best bet might be to try R4.1, which will run
Fedora 29: https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/4225


Thanks for the responses. That's pretty much what I was expecting to 
hear. I did install 4.1 on this machine at one point, but after 
installation it would hang at the boot splash, so I couldn't test if the 
hardware worked. Incidentally, I ran into that same issue when I install

Is there an ETA on the F31-based 4.1 build, or is it still going to be a

Ok, thanks. I will update the documentation accordingly.

 I have a newer machine, and I've found several hardware features
 that work under F30 but not F25 and not under Qubes even with the
 same kernel version as tested in F30 (suggesting the Fedora
