.aw ventoy

Arch Wiki: Ventoy

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ventoy

[lapis furnace]

And use it to make your arch USB

[graceful spruce]

Um, I made archlinux bootable USB with rufus to install arch on my computer that now has windows 11. So I tried booting, it shows only grub shell. I've installed archlinux for same way many times on the same computer, this problem hasn't happened before.

[lapis furnace]

Rufus can be time to time

Ventoy gives better results

Also sounds like corrupted ISO

... ventoy

[graceful spruce]

I've redownload iso from 3 other servers

And I've reinstall rufus and tried

And I've changed USB, too

[lapis furnace]

Wdym? There's only one place to get arch. And arch website recommends the magnet/torrent link

And use ventoy, not Rufus

[graceful spruce]

Ok

[lapis furnace]

Also torrents are better as it will verify your download

[graceful spruce]

Um I live in South Korea, So U.S. or European server is very slow to download

[lapis furnace]

Try torrent

But if you already have the ISO, verify it

[graceful spruce]

By the way, It works very very well on another computer

I think my bios has problem

[lapis furnace]

IDK

[graceful spruce]

That's my another computer.

Same USB, Same way to boot

But the results are different

[lapis furnace]

Ventoy?

Is secure boot disabled?

Is fast startup disabled on windoz?

[graceful spruce]

um what is it

[lapis furnace]

Run ventoy2disk.exe as admin

Then set it to GPT mode on the option menu

[lapis furnace]

Is secure boot disabled on your BIOS?

[graceful spruce]

yeah

[lapis furnace]

Is fast startup disabled on windoz?

[graceful spruce]

already

yeah

[lapis furnace]

Option menu then look for a gpt option

[graceful spruce]

ok

then?

[lapis furnace]

Also disable secure boot on ventoy

[graceful spruce]

then?

[lapis furnace]

Then install it and copy arch iso to the new ventoy USB

[graceful spruce]

just ctrl+c, and ctrl+v?

[lapis furnace]

Yes

[graceful spruce]

yeah I did

[lapis furnace]

I mean copy the iso file, not it's contents

[graceful spruce]

ok wait

[lapis furnace]

Like arch.iso > ventoy usb

[lapis furnace]

... faststartup

[solar plank]

#10849 📣 https://www.windowscentral.com/how-disable-windows-10-fast-startup

[graceful spruce]

I already did all of you said

[graceful spruce]

So can I try booting?

[lapis furnace]

Is the arch iso on the ventoy usb as arch.iso?

[lapis furnace]

That's bios fast boot. It has nothing to do with fast startup. Bios fast boot should be enabled

So read the article

[graceful spruce]

Oh sorry

But I already format my SSD

I don't have windows 11 now

on my computer

[graceful spruce]

I read that

[lapis furnace]

Then you don't need to disable fast startup ss it's a windoz thing

[graceful spruce]

I already set that before and now I don't have windows 11

[lapis furnace]

That is required for dual boot

[graceful spruce]

Oh

I don't wanna

[lapis furnace]

But if you will single boot arch, NVM then

[graceful spruce]

Dual boot

[lapis furnace]

Just proceed

Arch Wiki: Installation guide

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Installation_guide

[lapis furnace]

Follow official guide

Or alternatively

.aw archinstall

[solar plank]

Arch Wiki: Archinstall

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Archinstall

[graceful spruce]

Still...

Ventoy USB also doesn't work

But another computer works

Um same as before

[lapis furnace]

You sure you're using the right ISO?

It should boot fine if you use the latest iso from arch website

I have the latest ISO and it works with ventoy

And your bios settings look good

[graceful spruce]

Can you give me the link?

[lapis furnace]

It on arch website

[graceful spruce]

That you did

[lapis furnace]

https://archlinux.org

Then download and use the magnet

Use qbittorrent to get the ISO

.aw qbittorrent

[solar plank]

Arch Wiki: Qbittorrent

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Qbittorrent

[graceful spruce]

I downloaded 3 servers of above

[lapis furnace]

That's not the magnet link

[graceful spruce]

ok

Is magnet

on the archlinux.org

or qbittorrent

oh found it

[lapis furnace]

Yup. Even the website recommends it.

You need qbittorrent to download

[lapis furnace]

Yup. Get it then copy it to ventoy usb and boot it

[graceful spruce]

I did but the result is same

I've installed arch for 5+ times but

I can't understand this happening

I have to find the another way

[lapis furnace]

Have you tried another USB port or drive

[graceful spruce]

Yeah I did

[lapis furnace]

Alternatively you could try with EndeavourOS

Which is arch based

[graceful spruce]

I'll try later

I have to go to bed

Thanks so much

[graceful spruce]

It worked

I selected 'boot in grub2' in ventoy

[lapis furnace]

So ... Now you can install it?

Or you already installed Arch?

... solved
