Trying to install Arch on a new computer
Downloaded the ISO from Arch website, rufus'd it to a USB Drive, booted
And before it even gets to the installation screen, I get 4 "A start job is running for"
Wait Network to be Configured
Wait Until Kernel Time Synchronized
Wait for udev to Complete Device Initialization
Load/Save Screen Backlight Brightness of leds:asus::kbd_backlight
After 5 minutes I get these errors

You can try reflashing the ISO, and/or try another tool like Ventoy

Downloading ISO from torrent fixed it, but now on rebooting after install gets it stuck on start job for Network Manager and User Login Management

I swear I've responded to this?
yeah, in the archinstall server...
anyway
what WM/DE are you using?
fluid cypress
yeah, in the archinstall server...
sorry for the spam
I followed a video so my archinstall looks pretty much like this
all I did was reboot after installation
did not chroot even though it is default, don't know if it's relevant

did not chroot even though it is default, don't know if it's relevant
it isn't, I'm struggling to understand:
Why you didn't go for a root password?
Why you seemingly don't have a WM/DE installed? Not even sure where that would be, is that the profile part?
given you're new I'd suggest either gnome or plasma-meta
what you want to do is go into a TTY, log in, and install one of those two, unless you have got a DE or WM already?
fluid cypress
oh sorry
orchid drift
we use the archwiki
orchid drift
as I say, we use the arch wiki, are you trying to install hyprland?
fluid cypress
yes
orchid drift
okay, I haven't, and don't want to use hyprland, mainly because the dev is a despicable human being, so, I can't really help you there, but if you're new to linux I'd generally suggest a DE, not a WM.
fluid cypress
I'm new to arch, and linux as a whole, community, so don't really know about those things, I just chose Hyprland because I think it looks better
If it's ok to ask here, I would like to know why you say that about the dev
I would rather have a WM instead of a DE for the same reason I chose Hyprland, if possible..

No Access
orchid drift
you're about to get access, lol, be patient
fluid cypress
Sorry, sorry

There will be a way to install and configure hyprland from the machine as it is, I just won't be looking into it personally
fluid cypress
I myself lost all my desire to use hyprland
on to making arch work though, I will try reinstalling it with profile set to desktop and get back to you on how that went
orchid drift
you don't need to do that
you can just install whatever the other thing is
what is it you want to install?
fluid cypress
qtile since it has support for X11 and I'd rather have a WM
