I am trying to install omarchy in my laptop but the installation is getting failed everytime no matter the version
And the interesting part is i have installed omarchy once but replaced with Windows 11 for my own reason but now that I want omarchy back , the installation is failing everytime
Any type of information and help related to this will be really appreciated
Thankyou

Hi @glass bloom I don't know if you managed to fix your issue yet but I had the same issue. The issue was that there was a btrfs partition which was corrupted or a leftover from a previous linux installation. These are the steps that worked for me, maybe they'll work for you too.

  1. At the error screen view the logs, then press the escape key to drop to a shell.
  2. Double check the failed partition issue by using this command:
lsblk -o NAME,SIZE,FSTYPE,LABEL,PARTLABEL /dev/nvme0n1p3

In my case the fstype was BTRFS, the size was 16M and the Label was "fedora_installation-live".

I took a backup of it just in case, mounted my windows partition (you could mount a usb also).

mount -t ntfs /dev/nvme0n1p2 /mnt/windows
dd if=/dev/nvme0n1p3 of=/mnt/windows/tmp/nvme0n1p3_full_backup bs=1M

Then wiped the partition and removed it.

wipefs -a /dev/nvme0n1p3

then rebooted and tried the install again and it worked without any issues.
