i once again tried the webdad install on a different VM with 4 gb mem allocation. still the installer [after zipping up to 95%] it just halts as the same shot i shared earlier.
alternatively if i choose architect install, its a breeze but i cant find JADE ! i wish to test drive jade on vm first

I have exactly the same issue.
Welcome to the forum.
Will wait for @codesardine s feedback. Maybe an issue with calamares facing problem in build and install?
Jade is not in the repos. If Yes we could have installed from architect
Run ( sudo -E calamares -d ) the installer needs a internet connection.
Let me know what the output is.
will do 
desktop is at home and my laptop has to adjust with max 2gb RAM i can allocate ! will update once i am done
EDIT: After almost an hour⌠the situation is the same. calamares seems to be frozen at 95% with bottom left saying âInstall Packagesâ
but the top screen seems alive with rotational display as defined on the manjaro system. this is on my laptop running virt-manager on manjaro host, with 2g ram dedicated to vm
Calamares downloads the packages and upgrades the installation, could be that only 2gb or a slow internet speed makes the download process very slow.
cant say on 2gb ram but i have downloaded a 5gb iso in less than 6 minutes ! will test out with 4gb ra on vm !
further, i had always opted for âErase diskâ to use the total vdisk and auto partition. i was unable to choose the manual [the vdisk was not listed in manual mode]
@codesardine
yesterday night i downloaded fresh iso, tried again to install and i left the desktop as it is presuming the install will be over with sunrise !
here is the error i got !
There is a new build available.

this build just works⌠[only glitch, i deselected chromium and selected firefox during install, which didnt happen⌠nonetheless, i installed firefox via pacman 
]
installed via gnome-boxes, host is manjaro-i3. i allocated 2gb ram to the vmâŚ
suggested requestsâŚ
- clicking search icon opens search window, it has to be re-clicked below on the icon to make it close. would be nice if it closes by either clicking else where OR Esc button.
more doubtsâŚ

unable to find the power button [how do i logout/reboot or poweroff]. i am testing as VM so i usetheVM menu to do this.
-

-
how do i add launchers [bottom left icons]
Settings/panel manager/launcher
For logout right click icon on systray.
You should have lxranr in settings, if not install it from repos.

suggestion for ease of use, can you add a âpowerâ icon that indicates and operates on-click ?
Is only visible if you have a battery VM does not have one.
aha ! got it ! the power-manager fails to load in vm ~? just curious, desktops too dont have battery ?!
It uses lxqt battery app.

Desktop tour is impressive, I donât think any UI have that.
Great work.

Not that I know off, something like this would be hard to implement on current toolkits.

I just installed it and it is running smoothly fine so far. I will leave my laptop features so it can help you and others. I will be testing and posting how it goes once a week if I notice any changes.
