Just a heads up:
I just installed the KDE minimal using this:
manjaro-kde-22.0.2-minimal-230203-linux61.iso
in a VM (virt-manager)
It all went well, however I wanted to watch the progress instead of the slideshow,
so I clicked the icon to show the message console,
but it never updated during the whole time.
Tried changing back to slideshow and then again back to the console - it never updated.
Just one line at the top to the effect of:
starting installation …
I also could not find anything in the installation log
which should be in ~/.cache/calamares
(session.log)
if I’m not mistaken.
It was empty as well.
again:
The installation went flawlessly apart from that.
Cheers!
