Hey folks,

currently trying to install QubesOS 3.2 from USB which I created using rufus.
After booting the installation medium, I get the message "Couldn't obtain the File System Protocol Interface."
Then I am returned to the Menu of the installation medium, after which selecting any option just refreshes the menu.

Using a MSI B250M Mortar, set the boot option to "UEFI + Legacy" (the only other option being "UEFI").

Anyone with similar struggles or suggestions?

Cheers

I don't know if this is related at all, but I had the same exact message in windows 10 recently. Turned out to be the usb wire.

Currently trying to install on an Intel NUC. In order to get past this issue I had to disable UEFI boot, leaving only legacy.

(Still haven't gotten past the first graphical install screen, but at least that change got me past the initial text-only screen.)
