stuck on rootfs help

[cloud widget]

@cloud widget do you still have the usb you flashed?

[cloud widget]

Yes it’s plugged into my laptop

@cloud widget reboot into it

we are going to chroot

[cloud widget]

I’ve rebooted but it takes me back to root fs in arch

@cloud widget it says this when I write exit

@cloud widget reboot into the usb

[cloud widget]

How

@cloud widget enter your bios

[cloud widget]

Check DMs

@cloud widget reboot and press del or esc or f12

[cloud widget]

OKAY it took me to boot manager

It says “EFI usb device”

That’s all it says

photo please

[cloud widget]

yes, pick that one

[cloud widget]

I did

It sent me back to rootfs

[serene dust]

is that the usb you used to install arch?

[cloud widget]

@serene dust yes, iso was flashed improperly I think, look at UUID of devs. His /etc/fstab was empty. No way to flash a new iso. Going to try and manually echo > /etc/fstab lol but idk if it’s gonna work. You’re more than welcome to offer a suggestion

[serene dust]

ohh, he is trying to boot in the iso

[serene dust]

not sure, but ig something is wrong with the latest iso

There are some reports like this

[cloud widget]

@serene dust yeah i see a lot of people with the same issue, writing the date/time to the uuid on the archinstaller

i am really not doing a good job of articulating myself

[cloud widget]

Yes

[serene dust]

this image seems like you are trying to boot in your iso itself

[cloud widget]

I know I mentioned that someone from this server recommended for me to delete my other operating systems and files to boot arch Linux

So I don’t really have any other os than arch currently

[serene dust]

what

[serene dust]

so you don't have arch installed, that only the arch liveusb ? right?

[cloud widget]

Yeah

[cloud widget]

Yeah I got asked to delete the others

[serene dust]

who told you that?

I have seen @cloud widget helping about this kind of arch-iso issue
