Hey all I’m still struggling to get it to work. I have used rubus to write the qubes ISO as a dd image onto a usb stick. When it was complete I could see two folders.
I restart my laptop with UEFI bios putting USB boot as my primary. For some reason it won’t boot from the USB. Does the qubes installation need to be done in legacy mode or it works with UEFI?

When I use rufus, tell it to read all files and select the iso, confirm I want it as dd image and not as iso then I hit start. The bugger gets to around 15% after like 4 hours then fails with an error message. Error message just says write failure. The HDD works fine but there’s some issue with my windows 10 laptop from formatting it properly. I had to download minitool partition wizard as windows couldn’t partition or format it. Anyone know any other dd writer that works on windows? Or anything else I can try? All I want to do is install qubes onto this 2TB external HDD. Any advice greatly appreciated xxx Two notes: 1. if you do not find any better way, you may boot a live linux distribution over your windows installation without damaging it. 2. To install Qubes onto this 2TB external HDD I imagine you need another source (such as a USB pendrive) for keeping the Qubes iso installer. Then, installation should start with the pendrive and the 2TB HDD will be the target. Once I did that and it worked.
