Hello,

>> Did you make it permanently ?

Yes of course :-) but thank you for the reminder, I edited in once in grub for 
the first boot after installation and then applied it in the Grub configuration.
Same results, VMs won't start - it seems only the both sys network VMs work.

>> Dont give up :)

Of course not ... Don't be afraid, there ist just nothing more I can contribute 
to the Devs and I am sure the topic will be solved in the next Release 
Candidate.
Happy to test then, but it seems that this horse is dead (or I have the wrong 
saddle to ride it).

I've reinstalled Qubes 4rc2 and removed the line "iommu=no-igfx" upon first 
restart (after installing Qubes).

I found a small bug/typo in Grub, where it says that I should press Enter to 
boot, while the correct command is Ctrl+X.

Currently the installer is installing the default AppVMs. I'll keep you updated.
So far it looks good.

Hey y'all, I have found some workarounds for getting VMs to boot. If you
change the virt_mode to pv instead of hvm, usually sys-usb and sys-firewall
will begin to boot regularly. I also increased the qrexec-timeout to 120
per someone's recommendation here, and that seemed to help sys-whonix boot
better. Also running VMs in "debug mode" in the VM Settings UI seems to
help a little bit.

Hope this helps!

I was looking forward to trying out 4.0rc2 as well. Was a bit disappointed
to hit a roadblock, but I understand not all issues are going to be
smoothed out at this early stage. One idea I saw in here that might help
some test is to install 4.0rc2 directly to another USB stick and boot from
there for testing, but it could be slow.

I suspect the developers are probably spending most of their time working

Hello,

Honestly what is bothering me a bit, is that there seem to be lots of problems 
with Qubes 4-rc2, which is ok, as it is a testing release - bit I'd like to see 
more feedback from the Qubes Dev's, so that we can find out what is the Root 
cause.

Isn't this how a test release should work? We (normal) users are testing, so 
that developers can get a qualified feedback what needs to be fixed.

Or am I missing something and there is some action on the developer mailing 
list?

Hello Rob,

>> So what is the solution ? Every reboot I am
>> struggle to Start the vm’s

As I haven't seen any good solution for this yet, I recommend going back to 
Qubes 3.2 until 4.0 has been updated to fix this or until we know what is 
causing the problems (hardware?).

>> I've made a clean install of Qubes 4-rc2
>> but ~70% of the time I can't boot the VMs

After 2h troubleshooting I deleted my whole setup and reinstalled, again 
running into problems when trying to create new VMs.
... Ahrk. I. Hate. Linux. (From time to time).

Seriously, I burned now ~2h trying to get Qubes 4 running. Can't be that hard 
for a user who is running Qubes for ~2y.

Question:
Can we get an information on which laptops/Modells Qubes 4-rc2 has been tested?
Currently I don't know if I just to dumb to get things up and running or if my 
hardware has a problem.
As I have already invested lots of time in Qubes 4 rc1 before abandoning it and 
go back to 3.2, I just don't want to burn any time in case that my hardware is 
a dead horse.

Having the information on which laptops Qubes 4 "should" run or even more where 
it is running (Dev Users?) would help.
The HCL https://www.qubes-os.org/hcl/ does not help me, as it has no 
information if 4.x is ok for the X230.

As mentioned before I am running Coreboot, should I go back to stock ROM?

though, try it, even change templates, and restart the templates a few times. I 
didn't get the qrexec logs from the qubes-applet and didn't bother to check

qvm-prefs -s sys-usb pci_strictreset false

Results in:

qvm-prefs: error: no such property: 'pci_strictreset'

Has the setting be changed in Qubes 4? Same question has been asked by me for 
the internal setting, which hides VM from the menu.
