Following the latest update indicating the imminent demise of Fedora32, I decided to do a complete fresh install (as against my usual approach of updating).

Have downloaded the latest stable QUBES from the main website - and finally installed it.

HOWEVER IT IS USING FEDORA 32!

CAN YOU ADVISE WHEN THE DOWNLOAD WILL BE UPDATED TO USE FEDORA 33?

There are no plans communicated for a release after R4.0.4 ... there
might or might not be a R4.0.5

Fedora templates EOL rather rapidly so reinstalling or re-releasing
Qubes OS every time that happens is not practical.

Once you installed Qubes you can download the newer Fedora templates as
instructed in the announcement and go from there.

Cheers,

Thanks for info.
Have gone back to prescribed route as you mention - and everything is fine.
Cheers
