tracked on github?

Not sure it is a problem/issue or just a documentation item
(https://www.qubes-os.org/faq/#my-hvm-in-qubes-r40-wont-let-me-startinstall-an-os).
In some (most?) cases, you want to have HVM Kernels set to something like
default instead of "". It's only on custom OSes on an HVM when you're
booting the kernel inside the VM when you need it blank.

That reminds me, I need to add managing-os-kernels to my todo list; there
were a couple other pending items on it.

I did on Qubes Manager:
- - Create new qube
- - Select Standalone AppVM not based on a Template
- - Use a device for installation -> selected AlpineLinux and then Kali
iso's

Then a new a window appeared and suddenly it was closed without
reporting any error or problem.

I think it should be considered a bug but I'm not sure what is the
right solution.

I'm gonna open a new issue if I don't find anything related.
