acoustic niche
okay, do you have an ISO you want to use?
I assume endeavour can do it, I know arch iso can
neon dragon
sorry wait
ok im in my oc now
EndeavourOS can chroot too
They have a guide for that.
yea it didnt really help
thus me asking the community
You need an usb with EndeavourOS and boot into the iso
i have a usb with eos
It will load xfce desktop and from there run terminal and begin chroot

i dokt know how to chroot
acoustic niche
mount /dev/<partition1> /mnt
mount /dev/<partition2> /mnt/boot OR /mnt/boot/efi
arch-chroot /mnt
pacman -S linux-headers
I assume is all you need to do, partition1 being your install, partition2 being your bootmanager

maybe when i get on vanilla arch
For now use EndeavourOS chroot guide
Also share your lsblk

They fixed the grub issue on August that broke several Installations
that was easy to fix anyway, reinstall grub, remake the grub config, boot up like before
neon dragon
We don't know if you use BTRFS or encryption
Also lvm
Chroot depends of your drive layout
im gonna archive this now

How do you know

If you don't now your partition scheme well you can use mount -a from within chroot to automatically mount according to the fstab
neon dragon
let me send screenshot
strong merlin
Can you access a TTY with ctrl + alt + F[2-6]?
neon dragon
You need to run systemctl status lightdm
acoustic niche
have you got a greeter installed?
neon dragon
You installed EndeavourOS with xfce?
acoustic niche
meh, too many chefs, I'll leave this to lune and derp and unfollow 🙂
strong merlin
have you got a greeter installed?
I would assume that EndeavourOS would have installed one lol
strong merlin
Did your GUI ever work?
neon dragon
I would assume that EndeavourOS would have installed one lol
It does. If the user installs EndeavourOS xfce, it will install lightdm
If you go with plasma it will set sddm
And so on
luckily
i have a wm
startx
im in
but its poorly configured
but theres so much problems
my monitor blinks alot now
strong merlin
Did you try installing linux-headers?
strong merlin
And this started when you installed the NVIDIA drivers?
neon dragon
the thing is i also want gnome installed
neon dragon
And this started when you installed the NVIDIA drivers?
yes
but i feel like it isnt nividia
bc it was doing this when i booted into live ISO
strong merlin
strange
