Ubuntu template(s)
|
|
==================
|
|
|
|
If you like to use Ubuntu Linux distribution in your AppVMs, you can build and
|
|
install one of available Ubuntu templates. Those template currently are not
|
|
available in ready to use binary packages, because Canonical does not allow
|
|
to redistribute a modified Ubuntu. The redistribution is not allowed by their
|
|
[Intellectual property rights policy](http://www.ubuntu.com/legal/terms-and-policies/intellectual-property-policy).
|
|
|
|
|
|
Install
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
It can built using [Qubes Builder](/doc/qubes-builder/). You can also access its
|
|
documentation in the [source code
|
|
repository](https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-builder/blob/master/README.md).
|
|
|
|
To quickly prepare the builder configuration, you can use `setup` script
|
|
available in the repository - it will interactively ask you which templates you
|
|
want to build.

Known issues
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
Building an Ubuntu 14.4 LTS template can be difficult ([see](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/qubes-users/w0uZNr8nno8)).
|
|
A workaround is creating an ubuntu HVM A and use X over ssh from a second vm B ([see](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/qubes-users/-wkG7E55PUI)).
|
|
To do this you have to enable networking between A and B, or set B as netvm of A.
|
|
If B supports copy and paste or seamless mode so does (indirectly) A. (you will be missing some features. e.g.: send file to vm A)
|
|
Doing this reduces the security of A to the security of B!
|
|
This is no problem, if B's only purpose is providing X over ssh only for vm A.
