Aloha generous qubes-users group. I've been getting used to qubes for the
past 6months or so and have found lots of helpful conversations in this
group. Have had no problems with my thinkpad T580.

The issues arose when I first tried to update with the GUI. Fedora and
qubes itself updated just fine but whonix came back with a failed update. I
shutdown laptop and tried again. When I tried updating whonix that go
around, the computer froze, i let it sit for 10minutes and then did a hard
shutdown. After reboot, it will let me now put my password and disk pw in,
but then boots to a grey screen and a frozen mouse. I would suspect from
the attempt at starting the whonix VM.

Two questions:
1. How do I enable debugging or logs so I can bring them here?
2. Can I enable some sort of advanced startup options? Disable the startup
of specific VMs?

This seems like it could be a hardware or disk corruption issue. Try hitting ctrl-alt-F5 to switch to a text terminal when you are at the grey screen. Should hopefully be able to login there and pull logs. If your disk was close to filling up, that could point more towards drive corruption.
