Hi to All,
after a break I started my notebook and it failed to boot.
The Qubes splash screen started to show up and the progress bar starts increasing.
However about halfway, the system displays very many error messages at the display, until it finally stops. (see enclosed picture No.2)
Analyzing the situation i found out a problem with efi.
I started the system with my installation USB Stick and restarted the installtion of Qubes 4.2.4. Turning to the installation media, i selected the boot device and format and re-mounted the /boot and /boot/efi partitions. However I only remounted the / partition WITHOUT to format it, in that case i loose my complete system, apps and templates. The installer does not want to let me continue without formating the / partition.
Is there a hidden option / trick to bypass this behaviour of the installer and let me reinstall the system without reformating / ??
Thanks for your advice in advance.
regards, hitam
The situation after a clean restart.
I checked the /boot/eti directory: it seams to be empty.
