Welcome to the Manjaro community @strealstud

Could you please boot into a live session, open a terminal, and run the following command:

inxi -zv8

Copy and paste the entire output here. Make sure that you place three backticks ``` on the lines before and after the posted text so that it appears in the correct format.

The title is not clear - use a short title about your issue - then clearly elaborate on the issue.

If you are trying to install - please ensure you have verified the downloaded ISO using checksum and/or signature.

If you have completed the installation and subsequently did a system restart - a rare hardware issue - likely disk related occurred.

This kind of issue is impossible to fix using a forum thread.

You may try a restart using the installation media - run a file system check - and redo the installation.

Do you mean that the USB live session doesn’t boot at all or after installation ?
