Re: [qubes-users] installation failure hen trying to instal from usb to samsung sad on lenovo 220

2018-03-30 Thread kai . froeb
Hi Marek,

I am using this tool http://www.easy2boot.com/
to create my bootable usb, it is very easy to use, you just copy one or more 
iso image on the usb in the correct directory (e.g. linux or windows) and then 
run a little windows cmd script and the usb is ready for use. it has an inbuilt 
automatic menu, where it offers all the isos for bootng at runtime. so easy to 
create, maintain and to use. and free.

However, if this realy is the case, it explains why I constantly fail to 
install qubes 4 iso images with it, while all other people, using different 
tools, aparently do not fail. So may be i need to use rufus or another tool 
like that..

The funny thing is that it works with Qubes 3.2 installer, but not with Qubes 
4.0 installer. So something must have gone worse with Qubes 4 installer, 
compared to Qubes 3.2 instaler.

All the best
Kai

According to logs, "sdc4" is your installation source. Which is a bit
unusual - installer expect the image to be written to the device
directly, not one of partitions.
While the error message should definitely be improved, the problem is in
how installation USB stick is prepared.

And, btw, yes I am/was using default paritioning.

The same error occured both when trying to install from an empty samsung ssd, 
freshly arrived and unpacked from amazon, as well as when i tried to install q4 
on the same samsung drive after i had susccessfully installed qubes 3.2 on it 
(which worked fine).

all the best

What partitioning layout have you chosen? All defaults?

Can you extract logs from that system? The error message should have a
button to switch you to text console, then you'll find full error
message in /tmp/anaconda-tb-(something) file. You might want to
review/edit this file before posting it - it contains a lot of details
about your hardware. If you want, you may send it just to my address

[qubes-users] installation failure hen trying to instal from usb to samsung sad on lenovo 220

2018-03-29 Thread kai . froeb
greetings,

i copied the current iso (tried it.both with rc5 and with today final official 
iso) to a 32gb usb stick
and made my lenovo x220 boot from it. all went well until i choosed to habe the 
newly installed
samsung 512gb ssd as target (it was listed in the graphic menu of the available 
targets).
the system kind of halted for a second or two and then throwed an 
anaconda 25.20.9-12 exception report
Trace back (most recent file first):

File  "/usr/python3.5/site-packages/blivet/devicetree.py", line 184, in 
_remove_device raise ValeError("Device %s not in tree" % dev.name)e
...

The exact same line raised alreeady an error when trying to install rc5 on two 
other lenovo laptops (t430 and
l560) with several different usb drives as targets.

So at this point, i am a bit without clue what else to try to get qubes 
installed and am wondering
a bit what causes all the pther installations to work for all other users?

all the best
Kai
