I’m new to Linux btw. I installed Artix Linux on my pc then decide to switch to using arch instead. I used fdisk to clear my nvme0n1 of all its partitions from artix, then did a full fresh reinstall of the usb iso. Now when I boot into the usb it separates my usb and my nvme into different sections instead of having my nvme be sda. When I try to do cfdisk /dev/nvme0n1 and partition it, it won’t work.Any help?
>>1544897run the install script
I'll be honest OP: you really should not have gone with Arch as a NEW linux user. It's nothing against you, it's just that Arch notoriously difficult for noobs.You could use Cachy OS, or any other distro. I run Mint myself and really like it.

>>1544897>>1544900also just install endeavour os, you end up with a real arch install but with an easier time if you don't know what the fuck you're doing
>>1544899nigger installing arch is just 3 stepspartitionbootstrapinstall additional packagerebootinstalling meta package line kde or gnome would probably pull a login manager with it, not to mention reverting packages you install is just pacman -Rns, it's literally baby distro unlike apt that fucking break whenever it feel like it, ctrl+c during package install? now you can't use the package manager because fuck you, did you delete certain file on /usr/lib/share/docs or whatever? now your package manager stops working again, why? fuck you that's why.fixing arch by querying explicit/manual with qqe and qqm and then re bootstrapping them in chroot is easier than dealing with apt/dpkg niggerlicious behaviour.
>>1544897Run the command archinstall or. /archinstall whatever it is
>>1544897Doing it manually is fine if you want to learn some specifics (even if you could just read the wiki), but really just install CachyOS or use archinstall.
>>1544898ThisJust "archinstall" and it takes you through it.
>>1544905you don't know what the fuck you're doing.
>>1544897>Be me>Receive old PC for free>Decide to install Arch on it>Try Arch install for a change>KDE Plasma because I'm used to it>No swap partition for some reason>Arch install finishes, reboot>Fucking GNOME with KDE packages like Spectacle and whatnotEither I did something incredibly stupid without noticing or that shit is bugged so either way I'm not using it again.That kind of shit doesn't happen when installing Arch like God intended.
