Can you get sys-usb started? If so, use qvm-copy-to-vm in dom0 to copy the
logs to a VM, then to the flash drive. Otherwise, you could boot with a
live image of some type, mount the hard drive and copy out the logs.

Both seem unhappy with your video card. What's in that laptop? Please post
Debian's boot log (redact hardware serial numbers & MAC addresses), and
Qubes' xl dmesg log if you can get it.

Most likely due to lacking hardware support (in the kernel) for the CL graphics 
chip (even though it's little more than a rebrand of KL's). Try installing a 
more recent (ideally 4.14-based) kernel. Iow, it's sort of related, because the 
issues you ran into while installing qubes were most likely also related to 
that.

Thank You for the suggestion! Will check that out. 
I tried to install Debian 9 on this hardware and all went fine. Only thing that 
I noticed when installation was finished was that there was a notification that 
system is running a " software emulated graphics" and therefore CPU usage might 
be considerably higher. Not sure whether that is relevant though.

I think the problem is:

(EE) VESA(0): V_BIOS address 0xaa7a0 out of range

I've searched a little but I didn't find anything useful. I hope someone
could help you on this.

Ideally same as dom0, fedora-24?? I would try to guess what kernel
version starts to work fine with it and compare with built-in the qubes iso.

Try to switch to log or shell with alt+tab or ctrl+alt+F2 / ctrl+alt+F3

If you get a shell look in /tmp for log files

Did you try another Linux distribution?
