Hello,
I have a new small system (intel n100 cpu) and try to install R4.2.2.
During configuration the installer complains:
Title: [Dom0] Error (on dom0)
[‘/usr/bin/qvm-start’,‘sys-firewall’] failed:
stdout: “”
stderr:"Cannot connect to qrexec agent for 60 seconds, see /var/log/xen/console/guest-sys-net.log for details
"
Installer finished after clicking OK button.
Login works.
Qubes seem to be created properly.
The log file does not exist.
sys-net does not boot.
Any advice?
Maybe boot with kernel-latest?
Maybe you have a problem with PCI devices attached to sys-net qube.
You need to check the logs in dom0 to make sure:
journalctl
/var/log/libvirt/libxl/libxl-driver.log
/var/log/xen/console/guest-sys-net.log
/var/log/xen/console/guest-sys-net-dm.log
Maybe it’s this issue with PCI reset and you need to set no-strict-reset for the problematic device:
DMA errors VMs with attached PCI devices in Qubes have allocated a small buffer for DMA operations (called swiotlb). By default, it is 2MB, but some devices (such as the Realtek RTL8111DL Gigabit Ethernet Controller) need a larger DMA buffer size....

Reinstalling with kernel-latest didn’t help.
sys-usb works.
sys-net works too when i remove all pci devices. wifi device seems to be the problem.
I hope the log files above are helpful. I’m not allowed to upload the files (fully).

hi, something is mixed up.
my answer is now above yours.
If you have another way to connect the Qubes OS to the network (e.g. remove the wireless controller from sys-net and use ethernet controller in sys-net) then you can try to install the latest kernel for qubes by running this command in dom0 terminal:
sudo qubes-dom0-update kernel-latest-qubes-vm
Then try to attach the wireless controller back to sys-net and try to start it with latest kernel.
If it still won’t work then you can try to install the out-of-ketnel driver in the template of sys-net:
Contribute to tomaspinho/rtl8821ce development by creating an account on GitHub.
You can create a separate template for sys-net with out-of-kernel driver installed.
To install the out-of-kernel driver in the template you need to use the in-VM kernel for the template and sys-net qube:

You must disable it by adding the following to your module blacklists...
