Thanks for your help. The issue here is that I cannot get to the loader. If i boot to USB it
works after the kernel params listed above, but this model cannot do legacy boot to internal
drives. I have to do UEFI install but UEFI fails before I get to anaconda. I need to be able to
change the original ISO somehow to add the kernal params to turn off nouveau but because ISO is a
read only file, it doesn't work. I tried copying the files to a folder, then making an ISO from
the folder, but that method does the same thing. It will attempt to boot, then either go to the
"dracut timeout" screen, or it just goes to a blank screen with no further activity.
Very frustrating, since I bought this laptop specifically to use Qubes, now im finding out that I
can't install it. Is there any way to edit the qubes ISO file so I dont have the nouveau driver
activated? Every method ive tried tells me "read only file"
Try "apt install isomaster" in Debian.
So I attempted to use ISOmaster and it worked fine, however whenever I tried to write the
file in rufus it wouldnt give me the option of creating it in DD mode. No matter how I
save this ISO after editing, it never allows me to write it in DD mode like the original
ISO. I can still attempt to boot but it takes me to the "dracut initqueue
error" and fails. The issue here is getting the ISO created properly and after 100
tries on multiple systems, USBs etc i still havent managed to get it working. I've tried
every procedure I found online and I have not gotten it to install other than on USB
legacy mode, but then it wont boot from the internal drive in legacy mode.
Sorry, hoped that would be a shortcut! Here's a different way:

Got it from

Step #4 doesn't look right to me in that email, I think you'd only want
to use one editor.
