Installation stuck at Partitioning

Support
1

Hi :relaxed:. Today I was trying i3 dual booted with Manjaro on kde. During the install the installation is stuck at Partitioning screen telling :- Scanning storage devices. So I thought I should install Manjaro xfce and install i3 on that bcz both the xfce and i3 have same pakages ( idk if I’m correct ). :grin:. But the installation of xfce is also stuck at this same page. :slightly_smiling_face:. I hope you can help

( Sorry for uploading this picture , Imgur link not working and idk how I can paste the inxi output from this live boot )

I flashed the iso using ventoy. I even tried flashing the iso on a second pendrive , but still the same problem.

for install manjaro

in your UEFI motherboard
, create a profile and save for Windows ( if any) and another for linux

recheck all option in your UEFI ( for linux)

SecureBoot off
Fast Boot off
No CSM
No Legacy
all disks on AHCI

boot only on UEFI:<partition 1> → EFI install manjaro

you can check in terminal , before install

inxi  -Fxza
test -d /sys/firmware/efi && echo efi || echo bios
sudo efibootmgr -v
sudo parted -l

*** do not format /boot/efi , only add after for mountpoint ***

I checked all of the above things , didn’t notice any issues on . Everything is as expected. But still the problem continues :thinking:

4

I left the installer on that screen for about an hour , then it listed all the partitions , I selected where to install , the installation started and then after a minute the installer crashed :thinking:

5

can you try on USB live install ,
open a terminal

 sudo calamares -d

Are you installing the older version of manjaro?
This may help:

I changed from Optane to AHCI and also added that modules_load=vmd after quiet in grub menu

Yes I’m doing a fresh install of Manjaro i3

I tried installing manajaro kde , same thing happens. I think it’s the problem with installer. I tried installing enderavour os , it’s installed successfully. Is there any alternative way to install Manjaro :no_mouth:
