Hi, On the weekend I upgraded my Qubes 3.1 to 3.2, on my Thinkpad T450s.
(I had attempted a fresh install with the 3.2 ISO, but found that I could not actually get the installer going, likely due to UEFI issues as per the docs [1]. However 'use rEFInd' per the docs meant absolutely nothing to me, I wasn't sure whether that implies I'm to install rEFInd on the dom0 or what, in order to access the grub menu? Docs could maybe be a bit less vague here, but that's another story). After experiencing issues trying to do a manual upgrade with a Debian UpdateVM (yes I followed the instructions per [2], but I still had some undocumented perl dependency issue that I couldn't resolve), I was able to complete the 3.2 upgrade manually with a Fedora UpdateVM, without any issue. Hooray! The only problem is that I can't seem to boot into the 4.4 kernel - at boot-up, if I select the 4.4 kernel (the default), it just goes into a reboot cycle. I am guessing this is still UEFI related somehow, but I see no messages to the screen (cursor just blinks after the Qubes boot menu and then reboots). I am able to boot into the 4.1 kernels that I still have in the boot menu, left over from my 3.1 installation. Phew! Everything else looks fine with the upgrade. I tried the steps in the last section of the UEFI troubleshooting docs 'Boot device not recognized after installing' but it didn't help. Does anyone have any tips on how to troubleshoot the 4.4 issue e.g what to do to get more debug info as to why it goes into a reboot cycle? Is this something I can fix while booted into the 4.1 kernel, or will I have to look at this rEFInd thing to attempt the other UEFI troubleshooting steps? Thanks!
