@tranquil tiger do you want to dualboot?

tranquil tiger
<@832144585282027562> do you want to dualboot?
No
turbid citrus
set the mountpoint for p2 to / and the mountpoint for p1 to /boot
tranquil tiger

@tranquil tiger can you select the other drive?
tranquil tiger
Its just my usb Stick
tranquil tiger
set the mountpoint for p2 to / and the mountpoint for p1 to /boot
Ill try This rq
tranquil tiger
set the mountpoint for p2 to / and the mountpoint for p1 to /boot
I guess the p1 is supposed to be the efi
It wont let me
rotund holly
I guess the p1 is supposed to be the efi
Yea, just do as it says and mount it to /efi instead of /boot/
If the installer isn't lying that should be fine

pacstrap: error: failed to synchronize all databases (unable to lock database)
Not sure why that'd happen on a fresh install
dark locust
@tranquil tiger why not use stock arch?
rotund holly
If you install Arch manually you'll have a better time later when you run into issues since you know how your system works
rotund holly
He Said Its User friendlier than Stock
Arch and Arch-based distros are very demanding on the user and not something I'd consider user friendly, at least at first before you learn how your system works.
The only thing more user friendly about it is the installation
tranquil tiger
Thats what he told me
dark locust
I would recommended pop-os for "my first linux adventure"
tranquil tiger
I used Ubuntu for a quite a long time and he told me to maybe try arch

Why do you want to use Arch
Genuine question
tranquil tiger
I got bored of Ubuntu
rotund holly
So you want to learn more about Linux?
tranquil tiger
I guess so
rotund holly
Then install Arch manually. When I did it that was probably the single densest learning experience I've had with Linux.
You can ask for help here if you need it
tranquil tiger
I actually just wanted to try something new
I don’t care that much About what os im Running
But Ubuntu got a bit plain
rotund holly
You can use EndeavorOS, but I just think you'll have an easier time in the long run if you learn how your system works.
rotund holly
But im still Here for the troubleshooting
Wipe the drive and try to use automatic partitioning again
tranquil tiger
How do i wipe a drive lol

Can I erase it with using Shred?
rotund holly
It should be in the installer. You could also create a new partition table in either of those programs and select the GPT type
