The Fedora TemplateVM
|
|
=====================
|
|
|
|
The Fedora [TemplateVM] is the default TemplateVM in Qubes OS.
|
|
This page is about the standard (or "full") Fedora TemplateVM.
|
|
For the minimal version, please see the [Fedora Minimal] page.
|
|
|
|
Installing
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
The Fedora TemplateVM comes preinstalled with Qubes OS.
|
|
However, there may be times when you wish to install a fresh copy from the Qubes repositories, e.g.:
|
|
|
|
1. When a version of Fedora reaches EOL ([end-of-life]).
|
|
2. When a new version of Fedora you wish to use becomes [supported] as a TemplateVM.
|
|
3. When you suspect your Fedora TemplateVM has been compromised.
|
|
4. When you have made modifications to the Fedora TemplateVM that you no longer want.
|
|
|
|
To install a specific Fedora TemplateVM that is not currently installed in your system, use the following command in dom0:
|
|
|
|
$ sudo qubes-dom0-update qubes-template-fedora-27
|
|
|
|
(If necessary, replace `27` with your desired Fedora version.)
|
|
|
|
To reinstall a Fedora TemplateVM that is already installed in your system, see [How to Reinstall a TemplateVM].
|
|
|
|
|
|
After Installing
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
After installing a fresh Fedora TemplateVM, we recommend performing the following steps:
|
|
|
|
1. [Update the TemplateVM].
|
|
2. Switch any [TemplateBasedVMs] that are based on the old TemplateVM to the new one.
|
|
3. If desired, remove the old TemplateVM by running the following command in dom0:
|
|
|
|
$ sudo dnf remove qubes-template-fedora-27
|
|
|
|
(If necessary, replace `27` with your desired Fedora version.)
|
|
|
|
|
|
