My hardware is a Macbook 11,1. In fact I don't have any other machines at home. I want to create a bootable USB drive with Qubes R3.2. I had the usual problem of seeing the 4-item menu to install but nothing working regardless of option chosen. I tried some forum suggestions like adding /noexitboot=1 to the cfg file. No luck. I created a working Qubes USB on a Lenovo computer at work. I was able to create new VM's and set firewall rules. So I know it works. Then my uninformed head took over. What if I took that USB and tried booting it on my Macbook? The Macbook does not even recognise the USB at boot time. If I boot into OSX I can get to the USB drive through terminal and mount it. I then tried copying rEFInd to the Qubes USB stick but that just hangs the Macbook after selecting the EFI boot option. I'm resisting installing rEFInd on the Macbook itself until I know more about it especially the need to disable SIP. My question is: would that even work - copying rEFInd to the working USB drive built on a Lenovo? Are there any other options I could try?
