Alternatively, to create an empty standalone from the dom0 command line:
```
qvm-create --class StandaloneVM --label <YOUR_COLOR> --property virt_mode=hvm <NEW_STANDALONE_NAME>

```
qvm-create --class StandaloneVM --label <YOUR_COLOR> --property virt_mode=hvm --template <TEMPLATE_QUBE_NAME> <NEW_STANDALONE_NAME>
