I have experienced the same thing (and was actually just now about to create a new topic when I saw you beat me to it). As far as I can tell the problem is caused by some update to the system (using qubes-dom0-update) as everything works just fine on a fresh Qubes 3.2 system. This is my experience: 1. Installed Qubes 3.2 2. Installed Windows 32-bit HVM just fine. 3. (started testing QubesOS, including updating dom0) 4. Discovered that I should have installed win7-x64 in the first place. 5. Tried installing win7-x64, but booting the install media hung at exactly the same place as described by thread starter. 6. Made a fresh install of Qubes 3.2 and now win7-x64 installed just fine. 7. (started testing QubesOS, including updating dom0) 8. Now I want to make a win7-x64 Template, using the same install media, and I am once again stuck... How should we proceed to debug what is causing this problem? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
