Hey
So I am trying to install Manjaro KDE on my pc. I torrented using the official torrent, verified hash, used both balena etcher and the DD command, but when I try and open calamares, I get an error saying 1 module remaining (it might not be an error), and the module is partition. Here is the log:
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks
A guess - your filesystem cannot be read.
so do you mean the usb I’m booting from or my HDD?
Yes - the system’s internal disk - it is a guess but from the log your internal cannot be read.
A disk which fails as serious as it appears easily be flawed - but it is impossible to say.
I would open a terminal - then list the devices - check if it is present and take it from there.
Most likely I would - in case of ssd - try to reset flash cells - or try a wipe of the disk - but that is speculative at best.
I already have an OS on the hard drive, so it is definitely working
boot a live iso - open a terminal an run the command
sudo fdisk -l
Create a code fence like this
```
Then copy the text and paste it inside the fence like this
```
The result should be looking like this

Nothing looks out of the ordinary - I have no idea why it is stubborn.
If you don’t have data worth saving you could try wiping using either
sgdisk --zap-all /dev/sda
or
wipefs --all /dev/sda
