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-17-x64-dvm' VM (via command line, it is not listed in Qubes Manager nor system menu):
``` {.wiki}
qvm-run -a fedora-17-x64-dvm gnome-terminal
```
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 file
```
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.
