Never mind, I've figured out both of these. Unfortunately, it doesn't help, 
although installing the new kernel does get X working. I'm still stuck on [OK] 
Starting Accounts Service.

I'm guessing there's something in the kickstart config that's causing the 
problem.

I wonder if there's a way to update the kernel for the installer? Some way to 
boot the USB to a text console, then update the kernel, then start the 
installation process.

Can you help me with implementing these?

Not sure how to do this.

I can't start Qubes, so how can I do this?

looks like you still having gpu driver problems. I would still suggest my

Thanks for referring me to this.

I followed that thread to this one which included a very helpful kickstart 
config:

https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/qubes-users/-9qRHSkwfy8/CCx08nnTVEAJ

I was able to install completely, but now Qubes freezes at "[OK] Starting 
Accounts Service." I'll post another thread on that.

I'm assuming there is some graphics card issue, but I can't find any reports of

I tried to install in text mode, but I got an error when autoparting the disk

I took the recommended steps for installing on a Lenovo with UEFI.

Any suggestions on the next step for troubleshooting?
