You might need to mount the installer from another machine and edit
directly. I know I've seen more detailed instructions somewhere, try
searching this mailing list for nouveau + 4.0 (or 3.2 if that's what
you're using).

There's a manual/custom option in there somewhere that lets you specify
partition layout yourself.

It's similar to 3.2's.

[qubes-users] control boot line in installer?
I am trying to install on an ASUS ZenBook UV501 (Skylake, HD530, NV960M,
NVME SSD). The installer kernel OOPSes because it loads the nouveau
driver module, and gets confused by the bumblebee/optimus hardware
arrangement.
I have installed Debian 9.3 on this machine, and it works if I blacklist
the nouveau module during boot. (I.e. the i915 module needs to load
first.) But I don't see any way to control the boot line during
installation. ("E" only shows me a chainloader command line.)
Also, when choosing where to install, the installer seems to offer only
the whole disk, but I have partitions already in place, currently
formatted for swap and ext4, that I would like for the installer to
overwrite. How do I tell the Qubes installer to use those?
Might the 4.0 beta installer deal better with these details?
Thanks,
Nathan Myers
