1st Boot after install hangs (Older Mac Mini)

General system EndeavourOS installation
1

Hi Everyone!
I am trying to install EndeavourOS on an older Mac Mini. The live USB works with any issue and I am able to preform an install. However, when I reboot after the install in complete, it just hangs.
I changed the loglever in grub and noticed it stops at
Load/Save RF Kill Switch…
…
fb0: switching to radeondrmfb from EFI VGA.

Does anyone have any clue what is up?
Is there a way I can tell the install to use the same modules as the live USB, since it seems to work?

Maybe you add in grub on the installed system. /etc/default/grub

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="nomodeset"

Then update grub

sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

that should do the trick…
you may need to use arch-chroot to set this up or using grub edit on boot to add it to boot system directly

I’m not sure what the graphics would be on the Mac Mini?

Thanks! That fixed it!
The graphics on a Mac Mini are the integrated Intel ones
