Hi, could someone kindly explain me how to change the template of the
default dvm (or similarly, add a second one). I tried several
explanations online, but none worked. I prefer to understand the
procedure via dom0 terminal commands, but if you have a "click you
through" solution, I take it as well. Cheers, Bernhard

Say that I have a template called debian-12 and I run
qvm-prefs denian-12 template debian-12-dvm
That gives
usage: qvm-prefs [--verbose] [--quiet] [--help] [--help-properties]
[--hide-default] [--get] [--set]
[--default] VMNAME [PROPERTY] [VALUE]
qvm-prefs: error: no such property: 'template'
That is where I was stuck with the manual .... best, Bernhard

alright, this works (after shutting down all instances of the dvm)
