What’s uefi?
dusk hearth
What’s uefi?
firmware bios/uefi

UEFI/CSM/Legacy It'll probably be under the Boot settings of your bios

This one?
dusk hearth
look for it
fleet raven
It's under Boot Sequence
Ok what do I do now?
sly parcel
Just to check, you ARE wanting to wipe windows out for it. Yeah?
fleet raven
Like I don’t let it boot from windows?
sly parcel
Well, it needs to be marked as UEFI and not legacy, I think? If it was on UEFI, then it should be toggled. It's different on different hardware at times
fleet raven
Well it’s only gonna boot from the usb and hardrive I hope it works
fleet raven
Well, it needs to be marked as UEFI and not legacy, I think? If it was on UEFI, ...
Still nothing
sly parcel
Do you have secure boot on?
sly parcel
Turn it off and try. I know that's something a bit of a hickup.
fleet raven

What do I do
sly parcel
hmm... We might need to see if there's something else that might be stopping it in the bios. Because it SHOULD work if it's on UEFI and has securre boot disabled.
Actually... I do have somthing
@dusk hearth would windows being on fastboot keep Arch from seeing the disk to install on?

Ok

I’m confused

Oh ok

I admire your entusiasm with arch, but if you don't even know what is this, you will have a hard time with Arch
same with the logcat commands
sly parcel
To be fair, UEFI isn't something they NEED to know. It's borderline a set it and forget it sort of deal. And everyone starts somewhere. The important thing is trying to learn.

Arch is a Linux distribution with unlimited customization and full control

journalctl | curl -F 'file=@-' https://0x0.st/
@fleet raven please
dusk hearth
Arch is a Linux distribution with unlimited customization and full control
sure, but requires will to learn and study a lot. if you are willing to learn even what's the UEFI, then go ahead.
for context:
.aw uefi
fleet raven
<@1239171782314037384> please
It doesn’t show anything

btw, we had 3 cases already where the storage mode and CSM were making it hard for Arch to find the target drive

I'd believe it. I think we went over that in this one.
dusk hearth
some UEFI have intel RST, and by disabling it, it makes the drive avaliable for Arch
dusk hearth
It doesn’t show anything
ping archlinux.org
dusk hearth
I'd believe it. I think we went over that in this one.
yeah, the eMMC laptop, today's Asus also not showing the nvme, and now this case. all were an UEFI storage toggle and disabling CSM
fleet raven
ping archlinux.org
Is that a command

I think Kitten is checking if they've got network or need to connect. If he has network, he's probably cabled in

ethernet needs nothing to be connected. wifi requires to use iwctl

I used iwctl

if ping -c4 archlinux.org says response from , then you're online
then, run the logcat command

intel RST + nvidia, what a great and fun hardware combo @sly parcel
you guys gonna love troubleshooting it
this confirms intel UEFI shenanigans hiding the main drive from arch
sly parcel
I'm aware it's a bit of a stack. I looked it up when he posted a picture of his bios.
