Hello everyone,

FIrst of all I am very noob to Qubes. And my problem is that I have a vm machine created for vmware and I was hoping if there is a way to install it on Qubes?

P.D. If you need more info tell me please!!

Thank You

You can convert the disk to raw format and then try to use it in a qube.
Something like 'qvm-img convert -S -O raw <old> <new>'
Then configure a new qube and use the new raw img as root.img
The chances of this working are dependent on what OS is involved - some
wont boot given a substantial hardware change, some may require
relicensing.

Thanks for the answer and the machine has a fedora 24 OS I think.
