shft+print, anaconda will save your screenshoot after install in /root/anaconda-screenshots.

Wow, thanks, I would never guess that. Why isn’t it simply “PrtScr”?
I tried the following steps: press Shift+Print Screen → press Ctrl+Alt+F2 to switch to another tty → there’s no /root/anaconda-screenshots
This method only works with Redhat
anaconda will save your screenshoot after install

There’s no way you can ss in anaconda shell, that’s why i made guide with vm, ss is only for anaconda gui.
Have you try or just by browsing? Redhat, Fedora, Qubes are using Anaconda, and every anaconda installer can do this.

I’m installing Qubes OS now. During installation, I don’t see this directory. I will check again after installation
After finishing the installation and before rebooting to Qubes OS, I switched to tty and checked again but I couldn’t find that directory. Googling shows that many people cannot find that directory either
it is in dom0?
In the finished Qubes OS, I open a Terminal in dom0, do ls in home directory → there are several dirs: Documents, Downloads, Pictures, etc. I checked Pictures but found nothing
is there any picture in /root/anaconda-screenshots?
try this (because when you type pwd it not your root home folder)
sudo cd /root/anaconda-screenshots
pwd
sudo ls
that weird
sudo -s && whoami
cd /root/anaconda-screenshots && pwd
ls

but i don’t understand, why whoami don’t output anything?
I also noticed that part and I have no idea 
. I did a normal installation following the guide from the homepage. I haven’t modified anything yet
