Hi George,

I wrote the Whonix install guide you're using.


Make sure you're in the directory where your Whonix .libvirt.xz files 
are.

Step #4 is just for extracting out the .qcow2 and supporting files.

Later, in step #6, the .qcow2 images are converted to .img images.


Hopefully you've got it resolved by now.



A few additional notes about Qubes + Whonix...


- Dedicated Forum:

We have a dedicated support forum for Qubes + Whonix, where more 
personal assistance can be given.


- Whonix Upgrade:

Whonix 9.6 is going to replace 9.4 any day now, due to an update key 
error inside 9.4. Whonix 9.6 is uploaded to the download mirror for 
testers, so you can use that now instead of 9.4 if you please, which may 
help you out.


- New Platform:

The HVM instructions you are currently using are in the process of being 
obsoleted, as we have a brand new, greatly improved, native Qubes + 
Whonix platform. It uses a streamlined native ProxyVM + AppVM 
architecture, compared to the old limited dual HVM setup. It is 
currently being leak tested and banged on for the first time, but is 
publicly available, and several people are using it already, if you 
wanted to start using it now. The install process of the new Qubes + 
Whonix is much much easier too.
