I'm trying to create a Linux Lite VM on Gnome Boxes and get the error No KVM. I'm using the create from an ISO file option using an ISO I downloaded. AI is no help. Does anyone have a solution? I have two Linux Mint VMs that DO run just fine, so KVM obviously is present/working.

Using Gnome Boxes, I have show the following when I run df -h:

/dev/sdb1 458G 86G 349G 20% /home

I also show the following regarding the size of my 2 Mint VMs:

So, with 349G available, and 40G storage limit in the Mint VM I'm running, why am I getting an error when trying to download a 8GB file?

EDIT: Doing a lsblk as suggested below, here are the results

I'm coming from Windows where ShareX was the gold standard. OCR, Editing, and many other features. I keep seeing people suggest Spectacle, but a quick trial found nothing beyond screen shots. What is something like ShareX? (I did find someone trying to clone ShareX for Linux, but it was beta and I don't think I was even able to run it in Zorin - immediate abend when using it).

I have a server with some shared NFS folders. Recently I've gotten a number of stale handle errors resulting in the share not being available and a number of commands to rectify the problem.

So, I asked AI for ways to prevent stale handles and this one confuses me:

Use stable server mountpoints (MOST IMPORTANT)

Avoid exports like:

/media/server/UUID/backups

Use:

/srv/backups

or:

/export/backups

Mount the disk there permanently via /etc/fstab.

My questions are:

1. Why do longer paths make NFS less stable?

2. How do you even change the path in /etc/fstab? I'm only aware of stating the actual drive path, not some shortened path. How to I change fstab from the /media mount to the /srv mount they recommend? Is there the ability to alias a mount?

3. Why do they recommend the highest directory in the path to be /srv or /export rather than /media?
