Hi Joe,

I had trouble installing due to video driver confusion.  As the Qubes
installer is based on Fedora, I tried installing that first to see what 
happens.  Same problem.  It turned out that I needed to add the
option "modprobe.blacklist=nouveau" to the kernel boot line in the
installer to allow Fedora to install OK.

The problem then was how to add that option to the Qubes installer.
Managed in the end by binary editing the iso.

Best of luck with your attempts.

   Mike.
