I finally found a resolution for this. There is a doc in Qubes that discusses how some firmware will not recognize the default Qubes EFI configuration. Here is what makes the computer boot the drive after installing qubes to a USB: Rename the qubes EFI folder: sudo mv /boot/efi/EFI/qubes/ /boot/efi/EFI/BOOT Rename the two files: sudo mv /boot/efi/EFI/BOOT/xen.efi /boot/efi/EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.efi sudo mv /boot/efi/EFI/BOOT/xen.cfg /boot/efi/EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.cfg Now when you restart the computer and choose the USB drive in the BIOS, it will boot the USB drive into Qubes. FYI, there is a warning in the document that this may need to be done again after every kernel and Xen update. I sure hope Qubes developers fix this. If an update occurs and you restart before making these changes you won't be able to boot back up onto the USB again to make the changes! A reinstall is in you near future! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
