Hello, I have qubes os 4.0.4 I am trying to install arch linux but it fails in make qubes-vm with the following error
/bin/bash: line 1: 3: Bad file descriptor
make[2]: *** [/home/user/qubes-builder/qubes-src/builder-archlinux/Makefile.archlinux:149: dist-copy-out] Error 1
make[1]: *** [Makefile.generic:197: packages] Error 1
make: *** [Makefile:265: vmm-xen-vm] Error 1
Hi @aka0kuro ,
Welcome back on the forum 
.
Are you following the Building the Archlinux Template guide?
If yes, you should be in the 5th step, on the $ make qubes-vm command.
Ideas and questions:
make qubes-vm failed in your use case, try the individual make commands (next in the guide), so make vmm-xen-vm
df -h)Thanks for your answer, if the bug is in the make qubes-vm point, and tried to introduce the following command make vmm-xen-vm and the answer is the same. I have plenty of disk space. I use Qube OS 4.0.4 and appVM Builder is Fedora 34, from the other questions I can’t tell you because I don’t know where to look. I’m new to the system.
Ok.
The build log file name is available on the start of the build:
...
-> Building vmm-xen (archlinux) for archlinux vm (logfile: build-logs/vmm-xen-vm-archlinux.log)
...
Check-it.
If you see the sudo: effective uid is not 0, is /usr/sbin/sudo on a file system with the 'nosuid' option set or an NFS file system without root privileges? message then check the sudo: effective uid is not
0 section of the build guide, then make remount and make vmm-xen-vm .
I checked [1], it works for me with the above fix.
[1] Note that I use Qubes-OS 4.1, the other is same as you.
Hi,
I cannot pass the step 4 of the guide (make qubes-vm)
Qubes 4.1.1, buider VM Fedora-36
builder.conf made with setup script (same values as dislayed in the guide, except Qubes version). Tried both minimal and “full” Arch distribution, same result
I’d appreciate any help/hint how to solve it.
builder.conf
Output of make:
[user@arch-builder qubes-builder]$ make vmm-xen-vm

I have the same problem and can’ t find any answer in the forums.
make vmm-xen-vm fails to build:
umount: /home/user/qubes-builder/cache/archlinux/bootstrap/mnt: no mount point specified.

I use xen 4.14.5 and a fedora 36 template with plenty of free space as well following the archlinux guide in the documentation. Would love to paste some logfile here but my $HOME/qubes-builder/build-logs only has .gitignore in it.
Maybe I can look for something else? If anyone could point me in the right direction, I would be most gratefull.
kind regards
