yes
gray remnant
where did you put the iso
gray remnant
no gui file managers, show me on cli

that should work, maybe it's just not detecting the iso

grab a new iso from the website and then
run0 rm /media/mint/Ventoy/archlinux-x86_64.iso
run0 mv $HOME/Downloads/archlinux-x86_64.iso /media/mint/Ventoy/archlinux-x86_64.iso
run these 2 commands
save the iso to Downloads
gray remnant
how big is it?
ls -l /media/mint/Ventoy/archlinux-x86_64.iso
and see this again
quaint rover
grab a new iso from the website and then
run0 rm /media/mint/Ventoy/archlinux-x...
what will this do
put the iso in the ventoy?
gray remnant
sudo rm /media/mint/Ventoy/archlinux-x86_64.iso
sudo mv $HOME/Downloads/archlinux-x86_64.iso /media/mint/Ventoy/archlinux-x86_64.iso
they are two different commands, please run them separately

quaint rover
vocal mountain
don't just copy /path/to/...
you need to replace it
with the actual path
to the iso
vocal mountain
the iso should be on your main drive, not the usb
quaint rover
its in DOWNLOADS.
vocal mountain
its in DOWNLOADS.
Ok so specify the path then
gray remnant
if=$HOME/Downloads/archlinux-x86_64.iso
vocal mountain
im not understanding it
put the path to the iso in the downloads folder
quaint rover
if=$HOME/Downloads/archlinux-x86_64.iso
so what do i do now
gray remnant
press enter
quaint rover
i already did
vocal mountain
wait for it to finish then boot from the usb
to be extra safe, type sudo sync after it is done
and before pulling out the usb
gray remnant
dd bs=4M if=$HOME/Downloads/archlinux-x86_64.iso of=/dev/disk/by-id/usb-VendorCo_ProductCode_7743511093381083846-0:0 conv=fsync oflag=direct status=progress
execute this
quaint rover
failed again
gray remnant
picture
vocal mountain
failed again
cuz the iso path is wrong
quaint rover
vocal mountain
it's not archlinux-x86_64.iso
quaint rover
dammit
[just if you wonder why im not doing anything is because i CANT edit the commands in the terminal.
gray remnant
dd bs=4M if=$HOME/Downloads/archlinux-2025.07.01-x86_64.iso of=/dev/disk/by-id/usb-VendorCo_ProductCode_7743511093381083846-0:0 conv=fsync oflag=direct status=progress

you can use the arrow keys to navigate the command line and you can also press control with the arrow keys to go word by word
quaint rover
ohhh
gray remnant
are you going to use archinstall?
gray remnant
you arent going to have a good time, not trying to be rude
quaint rover
not falling for the trick again
where i use archinstall
it stops working after 1 reboot
gray remnant
so you are going to install manually
vocal mountain
you arent going to have a good time, not trying to be rude
I've already helped her install arch manually once, so hopefully it should be okay
quaint rover
other than doing it manually
gray remnant
I've already helped her install arch manually once, so hopefully it should be ok...
uh
i don't think other people should install arch for you
quaint rover
do i have to do stuff AFTER installing with archinstall
?
like configure n sh
no?
vocal mountain
i don't think other people should install arch for you
she insisted on arch, so I tried my best to explain stuff along the way
vocal mountain
like configure n sh
well yeah
vocal mountain
you said after...
