Eric Duncan:
Latest 1.17 BIOS, VT-d and Virtualization enabled in BIOS. Various thunderbolt assists disable/enable, etc options tried on/off. Must use discrete graphics during install, which is an Nvidia Quatro P2000 (similar to the GTX 1050qm generation).Anaconda installer gets past the initial setup, partitions the drive, etc and reboots. After first reboot, when selecting which qubes to configure, the system starts to configure all the Qubes. It is upon completion of this step, just before the system switches to the login screen, that the error message pops up: /usr/bin/qvm-start sys-firewall failed stdout: "" stderr: "Start failed: internal error: Unable to reset PCI device 0000:00:1f:6: no FLR, PM reset or bus reset available, see /var/log/libvirt/libxl/libxl-driver.log for details. " Click OK switches a black screen, and the system become unresponsive. Only a hard reset gets it to reboot, at which it boots up to the LUKS password, I enter it, and the system boots to a black screen again - unresponsive. I've tried flipping various options in BIOS to no avail. I suspect it's the Nvidia graphics. However, I can't get the installer to boot past Xen with Hybrid graphics - Xen pauses for 5 minutes or something, and goes black. NOTE: I got the same error on a Thinkpad X1 Tablet 3rd Gen using R4.0.1-rc2. However, switching to R4.0 RTM did not get the error and the system installed normally. WARNING (to anyone else installing on a P1/X1 Extreme/P52, etc): To install, you must switch to discrete graphics in BIOS (no hybrid). But, DO NOT DO THIS unless you have BIOS 1.17 or later or you will BRICK YOUR THINKPAD! Known issue across most latest-generation Thinkpads these days with discrete graphics.
Try temporarily disabling your wifi card for the install. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
