Hi,
I’ve recently reinstalled qubes beta R2 for the 3rd time but I can’t seem to get torvm working this time.
There are 2 distinct errors - this one occurs if I follow the instructions in the documentation to set up the torvm from the dom0 terminal:
[user@torvm ~]$ sudo service qubes-tor status
Redirecting to /bin/systemctl status qubes-tor.service

Any advice would be greatly appreciated! This has been doing my head in all evening.

This might be a bug in the startup script when it tries to disable IPv6.
It assumes there is an IPv^ interface. Do you have any IPV6 adapters?
ls /proc/sys/net/ipv6/
ls /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/

You'll need to fix the previous error first. You need to enable the
qubes-tor service, from dom0: qvm-service torvm -e qubes-tor
