[deft summit]

after i set my config in archinstall i get this error ```['/usr/bin/mount', '-t', 'vfat', '/dev/nvme0n1p1', '/mnt/archinstall/boot'] exited with abnormal exit code [8192]: b'mount: /mnt/archinstall/boot: /dev/nvme0n1p1 already mounted on /mnt/archinstall.\r\n dmesg(1) may have more information after failed mount system call.\r\n'

Too few arguments for command addnote!
Usage: .addnote <name> <text>

#9083 📣 try... isokeyring

#9309 📣 If you are struggling to run archinstall or pacstrap, the first set of things to do is:

rm -rf /etc/pacman.d/gnupg
pacman-key --init 
pacman-key --populate
pacman -Sy archlinux-keyring```

And if that fails, do:
```pacman-key --refresh-keys
pacman -Sy archlinux-keyring```


If refresh keys takes more than a minute just hit ctrl + c and continue, it likely has still worked.

It is not recommended to do the following as you become at risk of installing malicious packages:
```edit pacman.conf
and change the SigLevel to Never in pacman.conf```

archinstall not working

[stiff elm]

Maybe post your config, your lsblk -f, and the archinstall commands you did to generate the error?

[deft summit]

what do you mean by commands?

[stiff elm]

So in this case the command complete with flags and config

[deft summit]

well i dont know how i would type all of that to you

[deft summit]

but same issue happened when i just entered the bare minimum

like i did it again but only selected a disk and a root password everything else default and same error

[mellow storm]

idk why but
this is the 3rd time ive seen this similar error

[deft summit]

[stiff elm]

So we will have a looksee on GitHub soon I guess, but seems the script is struggling, might want to try out manual

[deft summit]

[stiff elm]

any chance you could tag me in the similar ones you've seen in October?

@deft summit you are using the October ISO right? the latest one?

[deft summit]

yes

[stiff elm]

apparently it's an issue for a while, I'll try and get the link for you, I guess you're options are retry or manual?

[deft summit]

ive retried a ton of times

but i might have an older iso file hanging around dont think so but maybe

i would say probably no

#9380 📣 Workaround if you have a NVMe device and keep getting issues:

1. Manually partition your drive(s)
2. Manually mount both /mnt/archinstall (root) and /mnt/archinstall/boot (boot)
3. Run archinstall as usual
4. Go to disk selection and press Ctrl+C (This aborts disk operations)

Then continue with your installation as per normal.
Apologies, the issue is being tracked here independent of symptoms: https://github.com/archlinux/archinstall/issues/1495
