Hello, I tried to install Qubes 4.0-rc5 on my laptop. It freezes during the configuration phase. Mouse stop responding, unable to switch screen. Any idea?

Is it related to this: https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/3198 ?

unfortunately no, it freezes in the setting up networking phase...

To be sure this is not the same strange phenomena, try to boot the setup with rd.driver.blacklist=nouveau nouveau.modeset=0 video=vesa:off

Is it freezing on the first template it tries to set up, or at the network
configuration? If network configuration, you can try to temporarily
disable your wifi card (either in your UEFI or pulling it) for the
install, then add it back later.

I used awokd solutions (disable wireless in the BIOS) and it works. Now I need to figure out why, after installation is complete, if I re-enable the card in the BIOS and attach it to sys-net, sys-net lose network connectivity completely... I will open another thread for that after I have proper time to test it!

Thanks for the help!

Check

once you get time to troubleshoot. Try the no-strict-reset option first.
