How to file a helpful issue

Qubes OS release

4.2.3

Brief summary

I installed Qubes OS 4.2.2 on an external NVME SSD connected via USB (I had used the same device successfully for n older Qubes OS on a different computer). After reboot there was an error displayed.

Installation finished, but sys-net would shutdown itself rather quickly, and without sys-net no qube can be started. Obviously anything fixable through a downloadable update would not work.

Maybe it has to do with some disk that cannot be mounted, like this:

Maybe this message causes it, but I don't know:

I suspect that it might also be CPU-related, as the Laptop (Lenovo ThinkPad P16 Gen2) has an Intel i9-13980HX CPU.
As other Linux shows 32 CPUs, and the machine has 96GB RAM, it would be a nice machine to run Qubes OS, I guess.

Here are some more details:

After that I connected the NVME device to the other computer that ran Qubes OS before, but there also sys-net won't start, so maybe it's not really a CPU issue.
The only difference was that I had to repartition the NVME for GPT (before it was MBR) as the new laptop does not support "legacy boot" any more.

After that I downloaded the latest 4.2.3 installation medium, installed Qubes OSagain, but the result was the very same: sys-net terminates rather quickly.

Steps to reproduce

Install Qubes OS

Expected behavior

Qubes OS starts after installation

Actual behavior

Qubes OS is unusable after installation.
