## Known issues
|
|
|
|
* Installation image does not fit on DVD, requires either DVD DL, or USB stick (5GB or more)
|
|
|
|
* Windows Tools: `qvm-block` does not work
|
|
|
|
* Some icons in the Qubes Manager application might not be drawn correctly when using the Xfce4 environment in Dom0. If this bothers you, please use the KDE environment instead.
|
|
|
|
* USB mouse (in the case of USB VM) does not work at first system startup (just after completing firstboot). Workaround: restart the system.
|
|

## Upgrading
|
|
|
|
### From R3.0
|
|
|
|
The easiest and safest way to upgrade to Qubes R3.1 is to install it from
|
|
scratch and use [qubes backup and restore tools](/doc/backup-restore/) for
|
|
migrating of all of the user VMs.
|
|
|
|
Users of Qubes R3.0 can upgrade using [experimental
|
|
procedure](/doc/upgrade-to-r3.1/).
|
|
|
|
### From R2 or earlier
|
|
|
|
When upgrading from earlier versions the easiest and safest way is to install
|
|
it from scratch and use [qubes backup and restore tools](/doc/backup-restore/)
|
|
for migrating of all of the user VMs.
|
|
|
|
Alternatively you can [upgrade to R3.0
|
|
using](/doc/releases/3.0/release-notes/#upgrading) first, then follow the
|
|
instructions above. This will be time consuming process.
