Hey y’all, I’ve gotten to the desktop with the boot drive I have but when I try to open it it’ll close soon after it loads. I read that it is sometimes caused by a lack of system RAM but I have about 8GB and have checked to see if the system recognizes it. I can’t figure out what could be causing the issue…
My Laptop is a 14-dq1039wm, and the latest version stable release of KDE is installed.

Hello and welcome to the Manjaro Community!
It will help if you post some system details to start with (more may be asked for).
In a Terminal, please enter the following command:
inxi -zv8
Copy the entire Terminal output and paste in your post; select the pasted output and click the </> button at the top of the reply window.
This will cause it to show in a properly-formatted code block, like it’s displayed in your Terminal.
8GB of RAM is not all that much these days, with modern browsers and websites. Those inxi
results will at least show if you have the needed swap
configured.
The installer doesn’t exactly “encourage” swap
configuration as I think it ought to.
EDIT:
I assume you mean “installation” rather than “installer”?
Have you verified the .ISO you downloaded? (sha256sum) — I’ll advise if you need guidance on this.
For example, if you downloaded this .ISO and saved the sha256sum file in the same directory:
sha256sum -c manjaro-kde-24.2.1-241216-linux612.iso.sha256

Here is the output I got.
I’m not sure how to check the ISO, I put it into the konsole and stated “No such file or directory”
And what are swap configurations?
Thank you so much for the help!

For the swap, this thread may be useful reading; there are a couple of links there.
As for checking the .ISO, you need to cd
to the directory you downloaded the image file and the checksum file to. Or find the directory you downloaded the files to with Dolphin and right-click & select “Open Terminal Here”.
Note the checksum files are on the same page as the .ISO downloads but you have to click “More” (or something) to see the extra links.
I’ve checked what I can but I think the problem is being misunderstood. When I press “Launch Installer” It doesn’t stay open after it loads in the logo. I’m not sure how to fix this. I got the ISO From the [https://manjaro.org/ ] Website. Admittedly I can’t understand how to proceed with the other instructions given since I got the ISO burned onto a USB with YUMI. Maybe that’s the cause of the problem? I’m unsure, or if any of this information helps.
I can’t find any other versions of the distro, any I have found are dead links, I might try others but I’m unsure if that will work or help either…

Indeed I was misinterpreting that. I’m thinking it could be a bad .ISO download, but when I saw “vtoy” as id3 in your inxi
I assumed you were using a Ventoy USB. (I’d recommend that, anyway).
Which operating system are you using to create the USB? I guess Linux but I’m unfamiliar with YUMI.
I was using Windows 10 Pro. pendrivelinux is where I got the program from, I don’t have a Linux system yet.
I’ll try Ventoy with the same ISO to see if it gives any different results!
Unfortunately results returned the same

I’d definitely try re-downloading the .ISO (and probably trying other flavours a well e.g. the Xfce one) to see if they behave the same.
I am rather out of touch with Windows (anything past Win7 Ultimate; the last decent MS OS in my book) so unfortunately can’t offer suggestions for verifying the checksum(s) there, but an option might be the Torrent as I believe this “verifies-as-it-goes”?

I’ll try Ventoy
A good idea.
From skimming the thread, a fresh ISO seems warranted.
Note :- There is no suggestion of a problem with the official Manjaro ISOs – any inconsistency will have been a result of the download. If you are downloading via a browser, I might suggest Vivaldi tends to be more reliable than some;
sudo pacman -S vivaldi
If you have a bittorrent client, then torrent files are available alongside the download links ( click More ).
You will notice the checksum is also downloadable; use this to verify your new ISO has not been damaged in transit.
Manjaro ISO’s should only be downloaded from this location, unless directed otherise by Moderation staff.
Ventoy is the bootable USB solution of choice.
The following contribution from our Tutorials category will explain how to successfully create a Ventoy USB, and how to use it to boot your Manjaro ISO.
Ventoy
A New Bootable USB Solution
Boot with a Ventoy USB and ISO files are automatically listed in the Ventoy menu.
Any ISO present can then be launched and booted directly. The obvious advantage here is that instead of constantly writing a Manjaro Installer ISO to a new USB any time you might need it, every ISO you desire can be stored on the Ventoy USB and launched the same way.
A 32GB capacity USB would allow ample space to store several ISOs of your choice; an 8GB capacity USB might …

Is RAID enabled ?
Please have a look into your BIOS / UEFI
There seem to be several inconsistencies with the information you have given;
Please confirm – is KDE Plasma installed, or is it not?
If it is installed, as you state; and as your inxi
output would seem to confirm; what is your problem?
Please provide more detail, so we can better understand the issue you’re having.
This part of your inxi
output seems to incidate you have already attempted to used Ventoy; and that remnants of both Ventoy and Yumi remain on the SanDisk USB. Plus, the USB has an MBR partition table which is useless if you are trying to install a UEFI based system.
Please fully destroy all partitions on the SanDisk USB and create a Ventoy USB using the link already given.
Are using Windows to download the ISO? The following tool is as good as any; and other options are mentioned in the second link:
If indeed you do have Plasma already installed;
After downloading the ISO, open the Dolphin file manager and right-click the ISO and choose Properties – you will find a Checksums tab which you can then use to verify that the computed checksum matches that of the downloaded checksum file.
Swap is virtual memory – either a swap
partition or file . The opportunity to configure swap
is available in Calamares when installing Manjaro to disk using the Erase Disk partitioning option. It is suggested to configure swap according to your needs at that stage of installation.
You have none configured, which suggests you either missed the option; or didn’t understand it, and ignored it.
Just to recap, please create a new Ventoy USB using the instructions (previously linked) to create a UEFI booting USB.
