I recommend trying kde as your desktop environment instead of xfce. I much prefer it

Hi @Pacer.
Can I ask how did you do that? I need to reinstall my system after everything I want was configured. I reinstall more than 15 times for now, just learning… But no make any sense anymore.
Can you please explain?
With an automatic configuration on installation, the system configures the root for 20 GB and the remaining (980 GB) for the vm-pool.
No ones answered how to mount properly. In every try, some !@#$ happens. When I try to use the LVM scheme, leave free space was not automatic expanded by LVM thin after first reboot. The same occurs with LVM thin scheme and just root mounted.
The question is: WHAT IS THE MOUNT POINT FOR VM POOL?
i have the same problem and this is going to be such a pain to do. can’t i just install gparted in dom0 and try to mess around with things? in a worst case situation, i just have to reinstall anyway
Isn’t the issue lvm2 provisioning related ? How are you going to fix that in gparted ? I just moved to a btrfs install and don’t have to administer lvm2 stuff anymore.
I don’t know. My knowledge of computers is in the bottom quartile of Qubes users. I did try using gparted and there are no partitions related to this. So I don’t even know why they would be flipped like this. What did I do?
I am not sure what a btrfs install is. I remember there were 3 options possibly when trying to install and the only way to get LUKS2 and customize partitions was this hard option that was confusing, and that’s what I selected, and somehow I got it to work and now have a lot of data on a 4th partition and I have no idea how to do another reinstall.
Isn’t there any way to change this? I have very little data in qubes I care about, I just want to maintain the partition structure which was hard for me to figure out.
Is this a fresh install or something older that is now experiencing a free space problem ?
If it’s a fresh install then something is wrong with the install and I suggest you redo it
There is a way to allocate more or less to different pools but you need to understand lvm2 a bit.

Qubes install defaults to luks with ext4 and lvm2 running on that. You have to edit lvm2 with the command line.
I’ve had a few lvm2 systems and only one needed any lvm2 tweaking
Changing the install to btrfs (a different filesystem) is pretty easy. It’s either in advanced options or b-livet
