Autostart troubleshooting
|
|
=========================
|
|
|
|
In several cases, there is a need to prevent ``autostart=True`` for qubes on boot. For example:
|
|
|
|
- ``sys-usb`` was enabled, but the only keyboard is attached via USB, and the ``qubes.InputKeyboard`` service is disabled.
|
|
|
|
- A PCI device assigned to an autostarting qube crashes the system (e.g., a GPU or RAID controller card).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To address this, there is a ``qubes.skip_autostart`` option for the kernel command line. You can use it at the grub boot menu.

Press the ``E`` key on the first prompt (or your custom prompt). Then, press the down arrow key multiple times to reach the line starting with ``module2``.

|
Append ``qubes.skip_autostart`` to the end of this line (generally after the ``rhgb quiet`` options).

Press ``Ctrl+X`` to boot with the edited GRUB entry. The boot will proceed as usual from here, except that no qube will be autostarted.
