Yes, I can boot other linux distros like Debian and Mint perfectly fine from my USB. Qubes installed to my external HDD (I also installed it to another USB, but both have the same result) doesn't show the GRUB menu, only a blinking cursor that's unresponsive to keyboard input. When I tried the Qubes live image, I can select an option from the GRUB menu and it tries to boot, but fails with the following (made the drive with Rufus): Warning: /dev/disk/by-label/Qubes-R3.1-alpha1.1-x86_64-LIVE does not exist Warning: /dev/mapper/live-rw does not exist I also tried to boot from the installation on the extrnal HDD on another (significantly older w/ winXP) laptop and it repeatedly reboots during the boot process (after the GRUB menu, but before entering the LUKS passphrase). However, it does boot up the live image completely fine. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
