========================================
Cannot start installation, hangs at four penguins after choosing "Test media and install Qubes OS" in GRUB menu
---------------------
There is some [common bug in UEFI implementation](http://xen.markmail.org/message/f6lx2ab4o2fch35r), affecting mostly Lenovo systems, but probably some others too. You can try existing workaround:
1. In GRUB menu<sup id="a1-1">[1](#f1)</sup> press `e`.
2. At the end of `chainloader` line add `/mapbs /noexitboot`.
3. Perform installation normally, but not reboot system at the end yet.
4. Go to `tty2` (Ctrl-Alt-F2).
5. Enable `/mapbs /noexitboot` on just installed system. This step differs between Qubes releases:
01. In GRUB menu<sup id="a1-1">[1](#f1)</sup> press `e`.
02. At the end of `chainloader` line add `/mapbs /noexitboot`.
03. Perform installation normally, but not reboot system at the end yet.
04. Go to `tty2` (Ctrl-Alt-F2).
05. Enable `/mapbs /noexitboot` on just installed system. This step differs between Qubes releases:
* for Qubes 3.1:
**For Qubes 3.1:**
5. Execute `mount | grep boot/efi` and note device name (first column). It should be something like `/dev/sda1`.
6. Execute `efibootmgr -v`, search for `Qubes` entry and note its number (it should be something like `Boot0001` - `0001` is an entry number).
7. Replace existing `Qubes` entry with modified one. Replace `XXXX` with entry number from previous step, `/dev/sda` with your disk name and `-p 1` with `/boot/efi` partition number):
06. Execute `mount | grep boot/efi` and note device name (first column). It should be something like `/dev/sda1`.
07. Execute `efibootmgr -v`, search for `Qubes` entry and note its number (it should be something like `Boot0001` - `0001` is an entry number).
08. Replace existing `Qubes` entry with modified one. Replace `XXXX` with entry number from previous step, `/dev/sda` with your disk name and `-p 1` with `/boot/efi` partition number):
efibootmgr -b XXXX -B
efibootmgr -v -c -u -L Qubes -l /EFI/qubes/xen.efi -d /dev/sda -p 1 "placeholder /mapbs /noexitboot"
8. Compare new entry with the old one (printed in step 6) - it should only differ in additional options at the end.
9. Now you can reboot the system by issuing `reboot` command.

mapbs=1
noexitboot=1
