That means your raw VM images are missing from the dom0 specified directory “/home/user”.
You need to first follow with precision the previous steps #1 through #7.
Provide Whonix Raw Images to Qubes dom0:
Step #7 is the one that puts the necessary raw image files into dom0 where they need to be.
For Whonix-Gateway:
In dom0: Terminal:
qvm-run --pass-io whonix-images 'tar -cvSf - Whonix-Gateway.img' > ~/Whonix-Gateway.img.tar && tar -xvSf ~/Whonix-Gateway.img.tar
For Whonix-Workstation:
In dom0: Terminal:
qvm-run --pass-io whonix-images 'tar -cvSf - Whonix-Workstation.img' > ~/Whonix-Workstation.img.tar && tar -xvSf ~/Whonix-Workstation.img.tar
