[qubes-users] Re: Cant get it to install

2019-01-24 Thread billollib
Well, I guess I'm pretty useless, then.  Sorry.  I sympathize.  It took me 
about five attempts of reinstalling Qubes and/or KDE neon to get them both to 
work. I swear that Qubes partitioned automatically on installation, but I guess 
my memory was wrong.  That's always the problem when you bang your head against 
a wall fifteen times, you can forget exactly which combination worked.  A 
apologize for leading you down the wrong path and costing you an extra useless 
installation attempt.

Actually yea it was the only OS on the drive, I had windows on a seperate drve 
though. After installing qubes on the blank drive I had no /boot/efi partition.

Will qubes install its own boot loader? I'll try again and make sure its a 
clean drive with the /boot/efi partition gone

The other thing I did wrong was to use the usb writer in a mode other than 
"dd."  It doesn't sound like you made that mistake, since you got as far as you 
did, but that caused me a few hours of amusement also.

It is the only OS on the drive?  I gotta tell you, I had nothing but headaches 
trying to do a dual boot installation, either with Windows 10 or Fedora 29.  
Since I have a hybrid disk machine, I ended up creating two MBRs, two 
/boot/efi's, etc, one on the SSD and on on the SATA drive.  One of the problems 
I had was even though I *thought* was doing a clean install, I wasn't. For 
either then qubes or one of the other OSs, I can't remember which, it wasn't 
wiping/formatting the /boot/efi partition, but instead just modifying it.  I 
ended up getting so frustrated, I just completely wiped both drives completely 
and removed *all* the partitions.  Then it installed...

Also, when trying to shut down from the shell (booted from usb), the computer 
gets stuck at "[   OK   ] Reached target Shutdown" and then never shuts down.
