thank you for all your hard work. i have everything working. here is some 
feedback and comments to help other users (i have a lot of qubes 
troubleshooting experience):

install time: "test install media" crashes. very easy to reproduce so i 
wont bother typing out the error. not a show stopper.

install time: i noticed that the disk partitioning works much better now 
and has a slightly better interface. this was a great improvement. i also 
noticed that installing on older qubes disk doesnt have a bug like it did 
in the past few versions. these were obscure anyway. some people will 
appreciate this.

first boot: checked all the boxes except "use netvm for usb" and "do 
nothing". everything VERY SLOW. user logs in, no task bar. something wrong 
with kde. can only see qubes vm manager. waited 15 minutes (this is a good 
idea). switched to a different tty (ctrl+alt+f2) and rebooted. 

second boot: kde looks normal. no other problem detected related to earlier 
kde issue. this is very good news.

whonix funny: for some reason sys-whonix seems to have a yellow light when 
everything should be green (various checks i performed). this only happened 
the first 2 times i launched sys-whonix.

template upgrade notification bug: i have to run update, reboot template, 
run again, shut down template, then the update notification in 
qubes-vm-manager goes away. it should go away when the first update 
completes. i tried reproducing this. it only occurred on whonix-gw and 
fedora-23 templates. strange and intermittent. when all else fails it is 
good to let qubes "try again".

updates: there were a lot of updates to install! both in templates and in 
dom0. this hasnt been out very long. is there a reason?

first reboot after a lot of dom0 updates were installed: a lot of errors 
dev-mapper device or resource busy. locks at "rebooting" (probably just a 
power management issue). waited 10 minutes (this is a good idea). had to 
hard reboot manually.

second reboot after all updates installed dom0 and template-vms: after the 
failed reboot attempt the machine trys to boot up again. everything feels a 
bit more smooth than before. no indication of problems. 

lets try rebooting again to see if it misbehaves like last time. no 
misbehavior. no dev-mapper errors. reboot successful.

note: sys-whonix is yellow again. rebooted sys-whonix. all green. i think 
that it goes yellow when the tor circuit is unavailable? if so i guess this 
could be a feature.

questions:
dom0: when will this be fedora 24? is it intended for 3.2-release to be 24? 
have you considered changing to debian for consistency (whonix, etc)?
