Re: [qubes-users] g505s BIOS settings for installing 4.0.1
cyber.citi...@tutanota.com: Hello everyone, I'd like to install Qubes 4.0.1 on a g505s, but the installation routine is telling me that IOMMU/Vt-d/AMD-Vi, and Interrupt Remapping are not available. I've tried every possible combination of BIOS settings I can imagine (such as enabling SVM support and toggling between Legacy boot and UEFI boot), but nothing is working. I've seen a lot of posts on this discussion forum saying that the g505s is compatable with Qubes 4.0, so I'm confused. Might someone toss me a clue? Thank you. I run Coreboot on mine but had installed Qubes 4.0 on stock BIOS too. You want SVM enabled. Think I used legacy mode. Is it the most recent available BIOS version? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

So the packages in testing are as trustable as any other package produced by Qubes. Authorised users can trigger movement to stable "when it's ready". In case of debian minimal I'll watch out for comments, but as I've been using it myself for some time with no issues it will probably appear in stable pretty soon. unman -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
