There is a doc in Qubes that discusses how some firmware will not recognize the default Qubes EFI configuration. Here is what makes the computer boot the drive after installing qubes to a USB: Rename the qubes EFI folder: sudo mv /boot/efi/EFI/qubes/ /boot/efi/EFI/BOOT Rename the two files: sudo mv /boot/efi/EFI/BOOT/xen.efi /boot/efi/EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.efi sudo mv /boot/efi/EFI/BOOT/xen.cfg /boot/efi/EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.cfg Now when you restart the computer and choose the USB drive in the BIOS, it will boot the USB drive into Qubes. FYI, there is a warning in the document that this may need to be done again after every kernel and Xen update. I sure hope Qubes developers fix this. If an update occurs and you restart before making these changes you won't be able to boot back up onto the USB again to make the changes! A reinstall is in you near future! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

Hey, i have the same problems and Qubes 4.0 not want boot from the USB Device. For this probleme i install Fedora on Virtualbox and copy the Image with the command "dd if=Qubes-R4.0-x86_64.iso of=/dev/sdb bs=1M && sync" successfully on my device. The probleme by this the Stick boot and i can see some Linux commands. After this, the screen is only black and nothing happened. This are my Bios settings: https://picload.org/view/dorgorpl/img_2 ... 4.jpg.html https://picload.org/view/dorgorpi/img_2 ... 9.jpg.html Hope, that someone can help. regards -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

It will restart after initial install, BIOS sees the drive as USB Qubes, boots into the configuration loader and eventually into the OS. Once there I can do everything and it all works including my Windows HVM yesterday. But what I thought was a fluke is turning into a real problem. USB will not boot again if I choose to shut down in the Qubes OS. I've now tried this with 2 different size and manufacturer USB drives with same results. The BIOS sees either drive as simply a USB drive (instead of showing "USB Qubes") and apparently does not see the boot loader any more. Please help! I just now tried a Qubes 3.2 install and have the same problem. Once I restart after all configuration is done, it never boots again. Computer BIOS sees the disk but there is nothing to load, even though it rebooted successfully during the installation. so, 1st you tried to install Q4.0 from USB installation media to another USB drive ? that failed, so then you tried to install Q3.2 from one USB drive installtion media to another USB drive ? Is that right ? and you've seen and followed this ? -- Installing to a USB drive Installing an operating system onto a USB drive can be a convenient and secure method of ensuring that your data is protected. Be advised that a minimum storage of 32 GB is required on the USB drive. This installation process may take longer than an installation on a standard hard disk. The installation process is identical to using a hard disk in conjunction with two exceptions: Select the USB as the storage location for the OS.
