Welcome to the Qubes OS installation guide! This guide will walk you through the process of installing Qubes. Please read it carefully and thoroughly, as it contains important information for ensuring that your Qubes OS installation is functional and secure.
Qubes OS has very specific system requirements. To ensure compatibility, we strongly recommend using Qubes-certified hardware. Other hardware may require you to perform significant troubleshooting. You may also find it helpful to consult the Hardware Compatibility List.
If the boot screen does not appear, there are several options to troubleshoot. First, try rebooting your computer. If it still loads your currently installed operating system or does not detect your installation medium, make sure the boot order is set up appropriately. The process to change the boot order varies depending on the currently installed system and the motherboard manufacturer. If Windows 10 is installed on your machine, you may need to follow specific instructions to change the boot order. This may require an advanced reboot.
The Installation summary screen allows you to change how the system will be installed and configured, including localization settings. At minimum, you are required to select the storage device on which Qubes OS will be installed.
Installing an operating system onto a USB drive can be a convenient way to try Qubes. However, USB drives are typically much slower than internal SSDs. We recommend a very fast USB 3.0 drive for decent performance. Please note that a minimum storage of 32 GiB is required. If you want to install Qubes OS onto a USB drive, just select the USB device as the target installation device. Bear in mind that the installation process is likely to take longer than it would on an internal storage device.
The new user you create has full administrator privileges and is protected by a password. Just as for the disk encryption, this password should be complex. The root account is deactivated and should remain as such.
By default, the installer will create a number of qubes (depending on the options you selected during the installation process). These are designed to give you a more ready-to-use environment from the get-go.
The Qubes OS Project occasionally issues Qubes Security Bulletins (QSBs) as part of the Qubes Security Pack (qubes-secpack). It is important to make sure that you receive all QSBs in a timely manner so that you can take action to keep your system secure. (While updating will handle most security needs, there may be cases in which additional action from you is required.) For this reason, we strongly recommend that every Qubes user subscribe to the qubes-announce mailing list.
In addition to QSBs, the Qubes OS Project also publishes Canaries, XSA summaries, template releases and end-of-life notices, and other items of interest to Qubes users. Since these are not essential for all Qubes users to read, they are not sent to qubes-announce in order to keep the volume on that list low. However, we expect that most users, especially novice users, will find them helpful. If you are interested in these additional items, we encourage you to subscribe to the Qubes News RSS feed or join one of our other venues, where these news items are also announced.
Please do not email individual members of the Qubes team with questions about installation or other problems. Instead, please see Help, Support, Mailing Lists, and Forum for appropriate places to ask questions.
A) Make a separate template for Flatpaks. Make a separate VM for Flatpaks. Install in the template.
B) Use a standard template. Install the Flatpaks in their own VM.
C). Install Flatpaks in the VMs they are needed?
This looks like an interesting solution for less technical inclined users and those preferring the standard Fedora templates for various reasons. It does however come with the downsides you pointed to.
If one has some technical skill in installing Linux programs and resolving package dependencies of course as always: debian-minimal, apt-cacher-ng & one template per app/use case for reasons discussed many times in this forum.

I needed an up to date telegram app, allowed a debian clone internet installed the package then the app per the debian instructions, seems to be working, guess I could just use the clone template for the 1 app vm in which I run the telegram app,
On operating systems like Windows and macOS, the desktop environment isunchangeable and part of that operating system. With Linux, any of a number ofdesktop environments are an option. Qubes OS is installed with XFCE as itsdefault desktop environment, but it also supports KDE, as well asthe window managers i3 and AwesomeWM.
Want to see some examples? Check out our in-depth guide on how to organize yourqubes, which walks through several common usecases based on our user research and years of experience from veteran Qubesusers.
Make sure your hardware satisfies the systemrequirements, as Qubes OS cannot run on every typeof computer. You may also want to check out Qubes-certifiedHardware and take a look at the HardwareCompatibility List (HCL).
when I choose the ISO file and launch the installation process during the installation process (when the VM need to restart to finalize the installation as a default behavior during windows OS installation) I always receive BOOTMGR is missing or no bootable disk every time I start the VM after the shutdown during the installation I could not find any documentation or tutorial to follow
Hi there, I want to tell you my feedback and need help for my project. At first I am used to many different Linux distributions but qubes is the first distro which really makes me going crazy sometimes. The first point is I have debian problems...
In case technical issues are experienced such as broken dom0, broken qubes-dom0-update are Qubes issues and unspecific to Whonix and should therefore be either reported to qubes-issues, or added as a comment to an existing issue there (if appropriate). This is further elaborated in What to post in this Qubes-Whonix forum and what not.
If Qubes-Whonix 16 is installed and you want to get Qubes-Whonix 17, there is no need to uninstall Qubes-Whonix 16 before proceeding according to the instructions on this wiki page. This is because the new templates (whonix-workstation-17, whonix-gateway-17) will be installed alongside the old templates (whonix-ws-16, whonix-gw-16).
In this case, App Qubes that were previously configured to use Qubes-Whonix 16 templates will keep using them -- the Templates of any App Qubes are not automatically changed to the newly installed Qubes-Whonix 16 templates. This is a Qubes default and unspecific to Qubes-Whonix. [2] Therefore, a manual change must be applied to App Qubes settings by the user. The rationale is to prevent unexpected changes of an App Qube's Template without the user's consent. [3]
If you are already running Qubes-Whonix 17, it must be uninstalled before a complete re-installation is performed. This is also necessary when Qubes-Whonix 17 is bundled as part of future Qubes releases, and auto-configuration is selected during the installation.
There is a Qubes bug that may cause the Disposable Template to run instead of the Disposable. Might be fixed in Qubes R4.2. Unspecific to Whonix. If this happens, just log off and back on. There is no need to reinstall or set up anything.

A standalone is a type of qube that is created by cloning a template. Unlike templates, however, standalones do not supply their root filesystems to other qubes. Examples of situations in which standalones can be useful include: Qubes used for...
I have now tried about 20 times to install Qubes (on a Windows 11) system, and no matter what I try I keep hitting a brick wall incredibly early in the process. I can't even get to the Qubes installer proper, which I understand has a pretty logo and everything and is supposed to show up just to even really start the partitioning and installation process.
Either way I can't accomplish anything at that point other than powering off the computer (and once again contemplating giving up on Qubes). In a few of the 10 or so instances during which I was using a USB flash drive with a drive access light, that light continued to flash, but I've let it run for a good 15 minutes before and nothing else happened.
Please help. This is crazymaking. At this point I've loaded my Ventoy drive up with many other Linux distribution ISOs, and maybe the only reason I'm still giving Qubes a chance is because I haven't settled on a second choice of distro yet!
I did come across yet another tactic, which was changing some configuration variable values, either in the ISO or live during the install. I haven't tried that, though, because (for the ISO editing route) I don't know how to edit an .iso file, and (for the live variable setting route) I don't know how to interrupt things (even in the 10 luxurious seconds I would have in verbose mode before the screen goes blank) and live-edit those variables and resume things.
The Qubes OS Project uses digitalsignatures to guarantee theauthenticity and integrity of certain important assets. This page explains howto verify those signatures. It is extremely important for your security tounderstand and apply these practices.
