So I'm trying to install arch on a system that already has endeavorOS on it (which can no longer boot). I keep getting this error when trying to run archinstall. Seems like it's not wiping before trying to partition, or it's trying to partition in the exact way that it's already partitioned. What do I do here?
should I wipe the drive with fdisk beforeI run archinstall?

should I wipe the drive with fdisk beforeI run archinstall?
can you send lsblk pls?
cursive kraken
can you send `lsblk` pls?
slender cradle
Yeah just prepare the drive before installing
cursive kraken
Would I do that with fdisk -W or -w
slender cradle
You can do fdisk -h if you need help with the commands
-w will wipe the disk
-W will wipe the partitions
cursive kraken
gives me a "device or resource busy" when I use fdisk -w
slender cradle
Try unmounting nvme0n1p1
cursive kraken
tried that, it isn't mounted
slender cradle
But on lsblk it shows that it's mounted to archinstall boot 
cursive kraken
oh, gotta throw the p1 at the end, lemme give that a go

I figured it out. This can be closed.
Nice. Could you maybe share what you did to get it working for learning purposes and so others can benefit?

Yeah sure.
I prepared the drive with fdisk -W [drive name] then make a blank partition that was compatible for UEFI, which I believe is command g and then wrote it. After this, archinstall worked!

Nice. If possible archive this thread and add [Solved] to the title
