Re: [qubes-users] Installer crash: IO-APIC + timer doesn't work (Dell XPS 7390)
Correction: according to the boot logs, Xen is still using HPET despite hpet=disable. My Googling/DuckDuckGoing skills have failed me. Any advice for how to disable HPET? I couldn't find it anywhere in the BIOS settings. Also, maybe this is relevant, or maybe it's why you brought up HPET in the first place: https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Linux-Disabling-HPET-CoffeeLake Thanks! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

That might make more combinations available to Xen and provide more detail. The messages are coming from Xen before it even loads the Linux kernel, but yes- a newer version of Xen such as in R4.1 might also help. If you have a serial port available, you can set Xen to log to it, but that is often a hassle with newer machines. -- - don't top post Mailing list etiquette: - trim quoted reply to only relevant portions - when possible, copy and paste text instead of screenshots -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

[qubes-users] Installer crash: IO-APIC + timer doesn't work (Dell XPS 7390)
Hello all, I'm trying to install Qubes on a Dell XPS 7390 (the XPS 13 developer edition). I've found someone else with similar issues in a reddit thread [1] made a few days ago. I'm u/qubes-xps13. # Hardware Dell XPS 13 (7390) - Intel i7 (10th generation) - 16GB RAM - all the necessary virtualization features (according to Qubes docs) - only UEFI boot; afaik there isn't a way to boot in legacy mode # Software Version Qubes 4.0.2-rc3 # Problem I've been unable to get to the GUI installer screen. # Things I've tried The original cause of the crash: ``` IO-APIC + timer doesn’t work ``` Following [2], I decided to tinker with the boot options on the USB installer medium. I first tried `noapic`, got an `x2apic` error, then added `x2apic=off`. My options line so far looks like this: ``` options=console=vga efi=attr=uc noapic x2apic=off ``` At this point, I got the black screen described in issue #5165 (3). Following the advice there, I updated my options line to the following: ``` options=console=vga efi=attr=uc noapic x2apic=off loglvl=all efi=no-rs iommu=no-igfx dom0_mem=min:1024M dom0_mem=max:4096M ucode=scan vga=current,keep guest_loglvl=all ``` With the newly verbose output, it looks like I'm back to square one: ``` Kernel panic - not syncing: The noapic parameter is incompatible with Xen ``` # Ideas I have - try with a newer kernel version (I don't know how to go about trying this, and it sounds like a lot of work) --- Where should I go from here? Thanks!
