Uman, I saw that you help or sometimes have some time and are willing to help folks with issues setting up Qubes (4.0) on their machines. As it happens I have a purism 13. I've downloaded the latest Qubes and have put it on a stick and tried multiple times to get the Qubes installation to run but nothing on the purism seems able to read or run Qubes automatically. I have put the Qubes in the documents folder and when I try to run anything in the boot folder of the Qubes the error messages that is returned is that the file cannot be located. Maybe I should put it in program files or something, but the problem is the OS is not windows so there is no such folder I can find. I'd use the terminal but if even one single command doesn't do the trick I am totally at a loss as to what to do, I really know nothing about how to run terminal. I have looked around on Qubes and Purism and neither seems to have any dedicated area for installing Qubes. There is someone on Purism's forum who explained how to mount the appropriate Qubes files but that was all through the terminal and was for Qubes 3 last year. I've also tried installing from the stick itself and that also doesn't work. The options I have are pretty simple it would seem. I can click on the Qubes icon in the stick and open it with task manager, which shows me the contents. If I follow that route, it's just guess and check but nothing works. I can go to the boot folder and try getting one of the application files to run, but none of them work. If I don't use file manager but try to run the application (Qubes the file or any of its internal files) the laptop can't locate it. If I try to mount any of said files, they merely show as open in the upper part of the screen but nothing happens. Clearly you can see that I have no idea what I am doing, so if you do have the time, please be patient with me if I don't speak and know any computer languages. I'm just starting out really.
