Installation of Manjaro using Calamares always fails
Several independent problems provide the worst experience installing Linux ever
When trying to install Manjaro Linux the installer fails for different reasons:
- The installer fails to select continue when first selecting manual partitioning.
- The installer randomly crashes when trying to find available block devices.
- The installer fails to install on systems with less than 8GB memory.
- The installer ALWAYS fails to install grub - the efi partition is mounted somewhere below /tmp
To Reproduce
Try to install Manjaro Linux with the installer on a new computer - you may chose to use the entire disk or try to use a custom LVM partitioning scheme. Use 512MiB of an EFI partition at the start of the gpt formatted device.
Installation fails - always.
