I am trying to install QUBES 3.2-rc1

I get onto the screen with penguins, and it says

efi: EFI_MEMMAP is not enabled

esrt: ESRT header is not in the memory map

---

And then it just stays there and doesn't do anything.

Is this normal..?

Am I just supposed to wait..?

Or is there something wrong here...?

---

I am able to install QUBES 3.0 just perfectly.... but not 3.2-rc1

I was also getting stuck on this penguin screen when trying to install QUBES 3.1 as well.

see if you can select legacy boot mode in your bios and then install qubes.

I had a similar issue with Qubes 3.2 but not 3.1. For me the issue was
the GPU. Increasing the memory from 256 MB to 512 MB solved the issue
(non-discrete GPU, of course)
