I've just bought a new T590 explicitly to try out Qubes.

I found the ThinkPad-specific help, 
https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/thinkpad-troubleshooting/, which is super useful.

I followed the instructions at the top, used a Fedora VirtualBox machine to 
create the bootable USB flash drive, and got as far as the Qubes setup screens.

Where it all came unstuck though was selecting the Installation Source in the 
setup screen.

Could it be due to a wrinkle in the steps for creating the USB image in the 
first place? The instructions say to edit EFI/BOOT/xen.cfg, but there is no 
such file on my image. 

> sudo ls -a EFI/BOOT/
> .  ..  BOOTX64.cfg  BOOTX64.efi  fonts        initrd.img  TRANS.TBL  vmlinuz

I made the label changes to BOOTX64.cfg instead, and that got me as far as I 
did.

But what's weird is that the ~4GB Qubes .iso doesn't appear to be on the USB 
stick? When I try to select an Installation Source, the USB drive is one of the 
options but when I try to Choose an ISO there simply isn't one available.

Many thanks,

Martin Gladdish.
