Take me for example, I live in China. Every time after I installed Manjaro, the first thing I do is: sudo pacman-mirrors --interactive , and pick mirrors locate in China, otherwise pacman becomes so slow it's unusable in most of the time.
My suggestion is adding a new page in the installer with the following options:
Manjaro Software Repository Mirrors
[ ] Use default mirrors
[ ] Detect and choose the fastest mirrors for me
[ ] Let me choose from the following region:
-- COUNTRY LIST --
This will save new users a lot of trouble.https://gitlab.manjaro.org/applications/calamares/-/issues/82missing libyaml.cpp.so.0.72023-09-18T14:42:56ZFrede Hmissing libyaml.cpp.so.0.7Running buildiso which pulls the package 3.2.62-5 from unstable branch.

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.https://gitlab.manjaro.org/applications/calamares/-/issues/51Include the option to install system using pipewire instead of pulseaudio as ...2023-06-18T16:17:34ZGeorgios MavropaliasInclude the option to install system using pipewire instead of pulseaudio as a defaulthttps://gitlab.manjaro.org/applications/calamares/-/issues/36Please add a button to make separate home in auto partition2023-06-18T16:15:28ZElrondo46Please add a button to make separate home in auto partitionCan you do that ?Can you do that ?https://gitlab.manjaro.org/applications/calamares/-/issues/45Latest Calamares fails to start2023-06-18T16:12:40ZTioLatest Calamares fails to startHere's the error:

Firstly I'd like to say that Calamares is the best graphical installer I've used on any system so thank you to everyone who's worked on it.
I have, however, found what I consider to be a bug. When booting into the live media, I selected the UK english keyboard (en-gb). I also selected this for my keyboard layout during the install.
When installing, I selected to wipe the disk and install manjaro, I selected the encrypt checkbox and entered my password - using the UK keyboard. However, when booting into the system, the keyboard layout was a US keyboard when entering the decryption password. This makes inputting some keys difficult / impossible.
Personally, I think whatever the user chooses when installing the system should be set as the grub keylayout as well as the system's. Here are a few references that might be useful.

After I installed Manjaro using the parallel install option Windows Updates could not be applied anymore.
The boot flag needs to be stay the first windows partition (50 MB) (sda1) for windows to work properly.
This behavior is really unfortunate since the boot flag does not affect anything other than breaking windows updates if it is changed.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Install windows 10
2. Install Manjaro parallel to windows. (Select windows partition and resize to fit linux root).
3. Reboot to windows and start updates. You will end up in a boot circle of applying the updates and then reverting them again.https://gitlab.manjaro.org/applications/calamares/-/issues/59how to customize subvolumes and their mount points when btrfs is chosen as th...2023-06-18T16:04:07ZHakan Duranhow to customize subvolumes and their mount points when btrfs is chosen as the file systemIs it possible to customize the btrfs subvolumes created during installation via calamares?

I just did a fresh installation and noticed that the default calamares installation on btrfs file system created @, @home, @cache and @log subvolumes and mounted them on /, /home, /var/cache and /var/log respectively. If, for example, I would like to additionally create an @etc subvolume and mount it at /etc during installation, is there a way to customize calamares by editing a config file or script?
