Mike,
I'm just starting to attempt loading Qubes4.8 onto a Dell Latitude E6230. It installs up to the point where it reboots onto the disk install, and continues building the qube VMs. At that point, it eventually hangs .. apparently while configuring the network. I think there may be an issue in detecting the network device. Did you have any difficulties during your install?
Thanks for any assistance you can provide.
Kaleb

rkd777,
I'm beginning to think that the embedded NIC for the system I purchased doesn't match the embedded link used to verify this architecture as valid for the QubesOS. I feel as if I've wasted my money on this one .. oh well .. :-(

To follow-up for you and others, here is the order I did things:
Disable Wireless card and Secure Boot in BIOS
Use the Ethernet port to install
All will setup and work perfect
Using links below I downloaded b43-fwcutter and wget packages into sys-net VM and followed the Fedora instructions to extract the firmware files from the chip into /lib/firmware/b43
When you reboot the VM these files will be lost unless you use qvm-copy-to-vm command to copy them to the Fedora TemplateVM
Then I cloned sys-net VM to sys-net2 VM
Reenable the WiFI card in BIOS
In Devices section of VM settings make sure Ethernet card is removed and *don't* try adding WiFi card here as it needs the --permissive option below
In dom0 I used qvm-pci a sys-net2 dom0:02_00.0 --persistent -o permissive=true to have that VM use the WiFi card
Once the VM sees the firmware files in /lib/firmware/b43 and the --permissive is set and persistent sys-net2 should up working
Now you can just change the sys-firewall settings to use either sys-net or sys-net2 and you always have a fallback to Ethernet again

“Install hanging at Network “
My install stopped a really long too at ‘Network’. It finished though and works. I have error messages during boot. Which I should probably search out. But Linux usually has messages that refer to hardware I do not have.
Installing wireless software modules, firmware can be challenging. I am trying to find a USB Wireless Dongle which comes pre installed in the Kernel. But.

work with qvm-usb (aka linux usbip) _and_ has a driver included
