Hello,
I am new to this forum. I am testing Qubes OS for a while now and I must say, it works fine. It is running on a Fujitsu W530 Celius with d3227-A12 Mainboard. On NVMe SSD over PCIe, without modification of the UEFI firmware and without additional bootstick. I have just made a clonezilla Backup over HDD and it boots perfectly. I also have another identical board to quickly make it work again, if the hardware fails.
So, I now have succesfully transfered all my digital life into a high security system with hot- and coldswap backup. On lowcost hardware.
In the future, I would like to built a desk system, based on Qubes OS and I am wondering, if some people might be interested in that, here. I thought about an automated clonezilla Backup-System or similar. Also a PiKVM, to securily access Qubes OS via Internet, without violating the security architecture of Qubes OS.
For that, I thought about a selftbuild mechanism, for example a special SIM-card integration, with a TAN generator or something like this, to grab the hole screen via PiKVM. What do people here think of that?
The main reason, I am using Qubes, is, that I want to maintain my own Homelab without security loss or similar. Especially, I want to use AI and documentation in a secure system. Of course I want to upgrade my hardware in the future, especially because of TPM 2.0 and newer CPU generation. At the moment, I don’t think the CAI is hacking into my system and that is not the point, why I am using it. I like the architecture of Qubes and the idea of just backing up hole “Computers”. Hopefully I can just bring my VMs into a new system, without a hugh amount of configuration.
Also integrating a physical roaming KVM, to use other operating systems besides Qubes, for normal things. I already startet to build one myself. The idea is, that it works with normal relays, due to several reasons. Mostly because of the acustic feedback 
because it is a nice sound, if something clicks and one knows excactly why.
I have added some pictures of my project. I thought about something like a multi-OS-KVM-Rack-System. With integration of a grafic tablet into the table, to make pen inputs, while using a keyboard, normally. Without issues of where to put the arms or lots of cables on the table. It worked fine so far. But it needs to be a grafic tablet with touch. Otherwise the workflow isn’t so well. But already worked
