New Qubes user! First install today.

"Qubes-R4.0-x86_64.iso" (DD image) is installed.
Downloaded today (2nd October 2018)

During the install during options for TemplateVMs, Sys-usb, etc. following error appeared:


------------------------------------------

[Dom 0] Error
['/usr/bin/qubes-prefs','default-kernel','4.14.18-1'] failed:

stderr: "Traceback (most recent call last):

client_socket.connect(qubesadmin.config.QUBSED.SOCKET)
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory

--------------------------------------------------------

When I press OK, I can finish the setup and boot in Qubes OS. BUT there is no sys-net, sys-usb or any TemplateVMs.

I then used the command "sudo journalctl" in terminal


Results (red text):

(1)
"tpm tpm0: A TPM error (6) occurred attempting to read pcr value"

### in white (TPM is disabled/deactivated (0x6))

(2)
"TDB: tdb_open_ex: could not open file /var/lib/xenstored/tdb: No such file or directory"
"Checking store ..."
"Checking store complete."

(3)
"Failed to start Qubes OS daemon."


--2 hours later--

(4)
Some ACPI errors

(5)
Failed to find module 'uinput'

I have been searching GitHub and Reddit. This could be similar.

If it is the same problem, why do I get it when I haven't used R3.2? remains from a previous owner? And what do I need to do to fix it?

Extra info:
I have a Lenovo PC, but I used Legacy Boot.

Anyone who have an idea that might help me?

Did you get it working? Might try a full re-install with your wifi card
