Your best bet is to search the mailing list archives and to look at
this page (if you haven't already):

On Mac OS X as a VM, see:

[qubes-users] Current chances of successful Qubes-3.2 on iMac 27" Retina, Mac OSX Sierra 10.12.3 (i5, Radeon M380)

2017-02-04 Thread dave m.
It looks like there are occasionally people who want to run Qubes on a Mac, and 
also some partial success stories.  However, the most recent I can find are 
from a while ago, with previous versions of Qubes, previous OSX, and older Macs.

Is there an updated Howto or more recent info about this?  I have a late 2015 
27" Retina iMac (model iMac17,1), i5 processor, Radeon R9 M380 video.  I would 
like to run Qubes, with Mac OSX, Linux and Win7 guests.  (My current setup is 
OSX host, with Linux and Win7 guests under VMWare or Parallels; this works OK, 
but I wanted to try Qubes for security.)

I did manage to boot a Qubes-3.2 USB drive, but it stops shortly after the 
initial (Grub?) bootscreen, when you select "Install..."  It says "Xen 4.6.1 
(c/s ) EFI loader, using configuration [...], vmlinuz [...], initrd.img [...]"

(I'm guessing the video is going elsewhere, but I don't know where!)

Thanks!
