Customization of Disposable VM
|
|
|
|
|
==============================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It is possible to change application settings for each new DispVM. This can be done by customizin DispVM template:

|
|
|
1. Start terminal in 'fedora-18-x64-dvm' VM (via command line, it is not listed in Qubes Manager nor system menu):

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``` {.wiki}
|

|
|
|
qvm-run -a fedora-18-x64-dvm gnome-terminal
|
2012-11-12 08:07:45 -05:00
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. Change application settings (eg you can start firefox and change default search engine, install some plugins etc).
|
|
|
|
|
3. Create empty /home/user/.qubes-dispvm-customized file:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``` {.wiki}
|

|
|
|
touch /home/user/.qubes-dispvm-customized
|
2012-11-12 08:07:45 -05:00
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
4. Shutdown the VM (either by poweroff from VM terminal, or qvm-shutdown from dom0 terminal).
|
|
|
|
|
5. Regenerate DispVM template:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``` {.wiki}
|
|
|
|
|
qvm-create-default-dvm --default-template --default-script
|
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Note:** All above require at least qubes-core-vm \>= 2.1.2 installed in template.
