Before installing Qubes-R4.0-rc4-x86_64 on my laptop in UEFI mode but not secure boot, I first had to follow the instructions on https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/thinkpad-troubleshooting/ summarized below:
<quote>In a nutshell, you need to use the Fedora livecd-tools to make a Qubes Installation USB Stick from the Qubes ISO image, then update the label on the partition of that USB stick to “BOOT”, and then update the BOOT/EFI/xen.cfg file on the USB stick so that all labels point to BOOT.</quote> Then it installed properly. However, there still seems to be some issues as reported by dmesg output below. ---------------------------------- ~]$ sudo dmesg --notime --show-delta --level=err,warn [< 0.000000>] ACPI Error: [\_SB_.PCI0.XHC_.RHUB.HS11] Namespace lookup failure, AE_NOT_FOUND (20170728/dswload-210) [< 0.000011>] ACPI Exception: AE_NOT_FOUND, During name lookup/catalog (20170728/psobject-252) [< 0.000229>] ACPI Exception: AE_NOT_FOUND, (SSDT:ProjSsdt) while loading table (20170728/tbxfload-228) [< 0.012538>] ACPI Error: 1 table load failures, 11 successful (20170728/tbxfload-246) [< 0.003614>] ENERGY_PERF_BIAS: Set to 'normal', was 'performance' [< 0.000001>] ENERGY_PERF_BIAS: View and update with x86_energy_perf_policy(8) [< 0.001585>] cpu 0 spinlock event irq 121 [< 0.001459>] cpu 1 spinlock event irq 133 [< 0.000567>] cpu 2 spinlock event irq 140 [< 0.000315>] cpu 3 spinlock event irq 147 [< 0.000803>] cpu 4 spinlock event irq 154 [< 0.000200>] cpu 5 spinlock event irq 161 [< 0.000787>] cpu 6 spinlock event irq 168 [< 0.000184>] cpu 7 spinlock event irq 175 [< 0.001973>] Grant table initialized [< 1.030409>] (NULL device *): hwmon_device_register() is deprecated.
