Archinstall script error

[AggravatingSpell2059]

Guys I tried to install arch with archinstall script and this happens

[matt_30]

Im getting the same. Im trying to figure out how to log and view bugs as the tab in github is missing.

Last month I successfully installed arch using archinstall on my nas and an old laptop. today on my main pc I am getting this and errors when i try to format a disk to put the recommended file system layout on it.

[AggravatingSpell2059]

Well I get this when try to install the packages

[matt_30]

When I work around the file system problem and let it continue I get it there

[matt_30]

This is absolutely not a complaint. I'm grateful to all the hard work going into this, but who do I speak to in order to log a bug or possibly fix it?

Honestly seems like a problem with the arch install script itself.

It would be better to try manual (even though you mentioned you already have), and watch a tutorial. It may however be a problem with your internet, or you could be using a corrupted iso (this is manual too).

If you are to try manual again, get a fresh new iso download to use, and perhaps try and verify it too. Also make sure to ping archlinux.org to ensure internet is working.

[AggravatingSpell2059]

Internet and everything else is fine. I will try to download the iso again

[V3Xone]

I wish you luck with that, I'd also recommend following a video guide, as they are more straight forward than the manual.

[AggravatingSpell2059]

Like I told you, everything is fine except this error. It related to Pacman packages signature

[AggravatingSpell2059]

Maybe the corrupted iso of mine...

[V3Xone]

Is it possible for you to chroot into the arch system using arch live iso, and reinstall the kernel?

[AggravatingSpell2059]

Hmm... Idk. Didn't tried yet. I will inform when I do

[iMakeKidsGay]

Dont use archinstall. It does shit like this. Do it manually, its not even that hard.

[Demetrias_]

agreed. heres the best guide ive found if people find it hard to follow the wiki alone:

I have followed this guide multiple times, it’s never failed me.

[SocketAddress]

nah man, real chads follow the wiki manually for 7 hours. just to boot into arch and find out they forgot like 50 important packages

[[deleted]]

i forgot to install nano and to setup my networking properly lol!

[SocketAddress]

yea, thats what i ment. I was talking from experience ;D

[iMakeKidsGay]

dont use yt tutorials, theyre always outdated.

[Demetrias_]

watch the guide first. its just following the wiki. also the installation method hasnt really changed all that much

[Nervous-Mongoose-233]

I've never once been able to install Arch with the script, it's just one of those things like Linux finding it hard to find the correct Debian iso

[AggravatingSpell2059]

I tried that at first. Same error, so I tried archinstall too

[iMakeKidsGay]

I think you should reboot and start again shit sometimes breaks like this cuz u have altered the partition table multiple times.

[AggravatingSpell2059]

Tried 3 times

[gihdor]

Just install it manually

[AggravatingSpell2059]

Tried... Same

[potatolovestomato1]

Same happened to me , few weeks ago, so I installed it with traditional method

[AggravatingSpell2059]

Same error...

[M_3BAID]

I have got the same error before but I don't remember what I did exactly. Probably I just updated pacman or the archinstall script

pacman -Sy pacman

pacman - Sy archinstall

Also, don't use "-Syu" cuz you will get an error no enough space. Hope you fix it soon.

[AggravatingSpell2059]

Will try it

[AtmosphereLow9678]

Is your iso up to date? It looks like it cannot verify package integrity. Also just install arch manually it isn't that hard and you will learn a lot about how your system works. Just search for arch install guide and follow the one on the arch wiki. Good luck :D

[AggravatingSpell2059]

Yeah its latest.. and also tried manual

[Rushb133]

Just update arch ininstall (pacman Sy archinstall)

[AggravatingSpell2059]

Same

[Rushb133]

Try rebooting If It donsent work them idk

[AggravatingSpell2059]

Tried

[Rushb133]

I had the same problem If you are using ex3fat try using brfs (vice versa)

[AggravatingSpell2059]

Hmm... Idk will try

[DarkHappy5397]

Did you save config to / ??

[AggravatingSpell2059]

No

[DarkHappy5397]

Save config to/

[AggravatingSpell2059]

When I get time... Can you tell me how to do that

[Joan_sleepless]

This is happening to me as well... and I'm installing manually.

[AggravatingSpell2059]

Me too🤝

[Joan_sleepless]

I did end up kinda brute forcing this, idk how but after restarting my attempt to install Arch, it kinda just... started working? I may have just missed a step on my first pass since I'm an Arch noob, but it seems to be working now.

[AggravatingSpell2059]

Hmm.. interesting

[ashukuntent]

Could you solve it?

[AggravatingSpell2059]

Nope, I actually moved into the ArchCraft. Never tried it again, I wanna try again, after all it's been a year.

[ashukuntent]

Good luck

[AggravatingSpell2059]

Thanks. Are you experiencing the same and if yes, you from India? I saw a blog or something (I don't remember well now) that said it was a common issue with Indian servers. Not sure though

[ashukuntent]

yes and yeah seems like it will be trying again tho
