qvm-prefs <HVMname> kernel ""
### When I try to install a TemplateVM, it says no match is found.
For example:
```
[user@dom0 ~]$ sudo qubes-dom0-update --enablerepo=qubes-templates-itl qubes-template-debian-10
Using sys-whonix as UpdateVM to download updates for Dom0; this may take some time...
No Match for argument qubes-template-debian-10
Nothing to download
```
This normally means you already have the template installed.
It may be that you have the matching package installed, but you removed or renamed the template.
Check `rpm -q qubes-template-<name>`.
If it lists the package, but you don't really have the template present (`qvm-ls` doesn't list it), you need to clean up leftovers of the package with `rpm -e --noscripts qubes-template-<name>`, then install it normally.
### I keep getting "Failed to synchronize cache for repo" errors when trying to update my Fedora templates
This is general Fedora issue, not a Qubes-specific issue.
