Memo on Installing Qubes at Acer Nitro

Recently I got another Nitro 15 (reasonable cost-benefit here in Brazil), and I booted QubesOS latest installation ISO but it didn't worked, before the GUI installer be invoked, I got the error when starting anaconda.

anaconda 41.28-4.fc41 for Qubes OS R4.3 started.

[...]

  File "/usr/lib/python3.13/site-packages/dasbus/client/handler.py", line 509, in _handle_method_error
    raise exception from None
dasbus.error.DBusError: Process org.fedoraproject.Anaconda.Modules.Network exited with status 135

I cold sweated: Must I ask refund on this piece of plastic and metal?

But then I tried with the previous version (which is still mentioned at official download page), and it worked like a charm!
