And trying to install Fedora 26 got stuck too. I found that in my case it is the nouveau driver that gets stuck - the driver can't handle the newest nvidia chips yet. I managed to get Fedora to install by adding the option 'modprobe.blacklist=nouveau' to the kernel boot command line (at the Fedora install boot use 'e' to edit the command line). However I haven't yet figured out how to do that for Qubes bootup. Mike. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

Yeah, I'll do that. On the other hand, it may be a Fedora thing. Just for giggles, I downloaded F26, and it won't install, either -- it times out, though it gives a different error when it does. I use these cheap flash drives I buy in bulk off ebay. I'll go get a pricey one and see if it makes a difference. But I gotta say, these same drives work fine for ubuntu and KDE neon. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

Re: [qubes-users] Rc2 hangs on install -- Dell Inspiron i5759-8835SLV
OK, I updated the BIOS. That got rid of the microcode error, alright. However, it still hangs. I now get the error: [2.040734] Couldn't get size: 0x8 0e [2.527013] usb 1-1:string descriptor 0 read error-71 Just for giggles, I tried a different usb port for my flash drive. On the second port, I get just: [2.039925] Couldn't get size: 0x8...0e and it hung, without the usb 1-1 error and for the third port, it's the same, with a different first number: [2.037575' Couldn't get size: 0x80...0e with the "..." being a bunch of zeros One other thing, there's a series of four lines that pops up quickly, but disappears faster than I can write them down, that something about UEFI booting or some such. Then the screen blacks out and these errors appear. As an aside, I'm running a dual boot machine with Windows 10 and KDE neon. billo -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

Thanks, I'll give it a try. Now I just have to figure out how to update my BIOS. Once I look that up, I'll report back... -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
