I have trouble booting the installer. Using the standard UEFI setup of

Qubes installer it immediately performs a reboot. This means that I
never get to the point to actually install Qubes on the machine.

I tried to boot the vanilla Fedora 23 live system. It boots without any
problem using both the standard UEFI setup and legacy boot. What is the
difference between Qubes and Fedora 23 that prevents Qubes from being
booted on that machine? May it be related to Secure Boot or TPM settings?

I recently got a new Kaby Lake Thinkpad. It runs fine with Archlinux.

However, I wanted to install Qubes on it and installed a second SSD for
that purpose. Even following the hints from the official Qubes
documentation I was unable to install Qubes 3.2 from the original
installer. It seems that this machine is simply too new for Qubes 3.2.
How can I try it out with newer kernels? May alpha or beta versions of
upcoming release be worth a try??

Any hints appreciated.
what about baremetal fedora23?, if it work with that should be able to get it 
working in qubes maybe you need later kernel version from testing repo.

secure boot has to be off.
I turned secure boot off and tried various combinations of boot
settings, like UEFI with CSM and pure legacy boot to no avail. Using
legacy boot, the GRUB menu appears. When I select the menu item "Install
Qubes" I see a message in text mode about the kernel being loaded.
Shortly after, I the screen goes blank and the system performs a reboot.
Nop error message is displayed. Something seems to be fundamentally
wrong with either my setup or the combination of Qubes 3.2 with this
particular machine. Does anybody else have similar experience with a
machine of this type?
try legacy boot again,  and and test with vt-d off maybe.  only difference I 
can think of.  disable secondary gpu and network card too. make sure gpu has 
enough memory.  double check bios options maybe usb settings too.
I tried all the options you have mentioned to no avail. I even tried to installed using the textmode installer of Qubes. While it starts to show the initial Xen boot messages, the screen suddenly goes black and a reboot is performed. This happens so quickly that I cannot see whether an error message indicating the source of the problem is displayed. The discrete Nvidia GPU cannot be disabled on this machine as there are no BIOS options for this. The machine has 32 GB of RAM with 512 MB assigned to the internal GPU. Memory it should not be a problem.

Maybe the combination of discrete and internal GPU is the source of the problem. When booting Fedora 23, the Nvidia GPU is detected and the Nouveau driver is configured. I could not find an option for the Qubes installer to do the same thing. Can Qubes be installed using the Nouveau driver?
