Hello, I own rpi5 but I decided to install arch on it since it is easier for me. I would appreciate help with installing steam on arm arch Linux. It was easier on raspberry pi os since there are scripts but I never installed steam on arch Linux arm

My space is kinda limited and Ubuntu and Ubuntu-desktop take lots of space, do you know any alternative that uses less space? If you don’t know then it’s fine, I can use Ubuntu with Ubuntu-desktop

So I tried it and it gives me error „<jemalloc>: unsupported system page size” and „segmentation fault (core dumped)”

well that sucks
https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Steam_in_box86 this is the other option

@steep root do you need to boot into ubuntu?
if not you can compress the partition for now and restore it later when you need it
