title: Skip Qubes OS autostart
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
The following instructions are valid for Qubes OS R4.0 *legacy mode* only and Qubes OS R4.1 *legacy* and *UEFI* modes. For Qubes OS R4.0 in UEFI mode, we don't have GRUB so manual boot from another operating system is needed.
|
||||
|
||||
In several cases, it is needed to prevent `autostart=True` for qubes on boot. For example:
|
||||
|
||||
* `sys-usb` was enabled but the only keyboard is on USB and qubes.InputKeyboard service is disabled,
|
||||
* Some PCI device assigned to autostart VM crashes the system (e.g. GPU or RAID controller cards).
|
||||
|
||||
For that, there exists `qubes.skip_autostart` option on kernel command line. In order to use it, at the grub boot menu,
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
press `e` on the first entry (or any of your usual/custom entry). Then, press down key multiple times to reach the line starting by `module2`.
|
||||
|
||||
[](/attachment/doc/grub2.png)
|
||||
|
||||
Append to the end of this line (generally after `rhgb quiet` options) `qubes.skip_autostart`
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
and press `Control-x` to boot the edited GRUB entry. The boot proceeds as usual with LUKS password prompt and then boot only the Qubes services without starting any qube.
