Hey, I want to install the same kernel and same ucodes for two installations, however, they share the same /boot partition, so I get an error when trying to install it on the second installation, is there a way to tell pacman to force ignore this and install the package anyway? Or perhaps use a different file name for where the kernel/ucode is installed to?

what is the error?
i don't think the problem is that much with pacman
tough venture
error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
amd-ucode: /boot/amd-ucode.img exists in filesystem
I want to tell it to install the package anyway, preferably without having to delete it every time
wait no I'll only have to delete it once because it gets replaced when updating right?
but updating one system and not the other can cause weirdness

yea
you might be able to just ignore the file
i forgot how to do that
if you update frequently on both installations it might be fine

it's the --overwrite flag btw
just be careful with it
