How do Tails and Qubes relate, any reuse of functionality?

(Tried Qubes as written up in [1] but eventually gave up as it won't allow me to create virtualbox images, and some other caveats, as well as being pretty resource hungry)

> it won't allow me to create virtualbox images

What's the use case[1] for VirtualBox images in an operating system designed around virtualization with Xen? You can simply create a Xen VM.

[1]: Note that I'm asking a question here, not invalidating your experience.


I've been needing to create virtualbox images for use in some courses (teaching data science and the like) at my previous work. This usecase has popped up often enough that I feel O need to be able to do this on my main laptop.
