[qubes-users] Qubes 4 install not seeing VT-d/VT-x
While attempting to upgrade from R3.2 to R4.0.1 I get the error: Missing features: IOMMU/VT-d/AMD-Vi, Interrupt Remapping I have an ASRock H67DE motherboard with an Intel i7-2600 CPU which according to the specs supports both VT-d and VT-x, and I have both specifically enabled in the BIOS. However, the Qubes 4 installer apparently can't see them. (I wonder if this is because I can only boot the installation USB in Legacy mode and not AHCI mode) I'm wondering if it would be OK to proceed with the install despite this warning. Is there a way to check whether these BIOS settings are visible to Qubes, or is this warning a clear indicator that they're not? (I still have R3.2 working) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

Look for the 5 lines at the bottom. You can proceed with the install, but if you don't really have support it will fail when trying to set up sys-net after the initial post-install reboot. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

I guess you mean the first five items instead of the last. I posted my HCL here: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/qubes-users/URIPsM1VURU Looks like I do not have IOMMU or remapping available to Qubes. I wouldn't get far without sys-net. According to Intel my CPU does support VT-d and VT-x, might there be some way to try to force Qubes? I've been using this machine since R1, and would love to keep using it if possible. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

Those lines are on the bottom of the screen when you run it. :) In addition to your CPU, your motherboard and BIOS/EFI also have to support IOMMU for it to work. Without it, you can install 4.0 and manually set up your sys-* VMs in PV mode, but this bypasses some of the security improvements. Probably time for a hardware upgrade, unfortunately. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
