This is unrelated to the issue at hand but you need to correct it later. If that is meant to be a swap partition.
You don’t format a swap partition as EXT4 and you don’t mount it into the file system.
I think for now you could comment out all the other partitions. Only leave your system partition.
This is becoming messed up 
I’ve commented out the last 3 lines of fstab and… flashing underscore, no boot. 
Maybe I should enclose some log or something?
Honestly I’m thinking about reinstall more and more each minute. But I still believe it’s something stupid, but still something I am not able to figure out myself.
Maybe this has finally to do with the change of display manager.
I’ll gladly go back to SDDM and never touch it again if that solves this… stuff. But I have no idea how to do it from Live USB.
What boot loader do you use? Make sure you pass the right root uuid in the kernel line.
You need to chroot into your system partition.
If this is your system partition.
sudo mount /dev/nvme0n1p3 /mnt
sudo arch-chroot /mnt
systemctl enable sddm.service --force
I hope you didn’t uninstall sddm. If you did re-install it before.
After that reboot.
systemd
Huh, messing with kernel? I’ll need some help with that, pretty please.
Just changed it via the EOS welcome screen. No idea if that also uninstalls it…
No, it shouldn’t.
Aye, fingers crossed. Rebooting now…
Nope, just need to let the boot loader know where to find the root partition.
Glad it works now.
I’m back and working! Geez, enough of adventuring for now when everything works.
Thanks a lot to all! Mainly @cactux of course.
Now you can fix your /etc/fstab.
Better learn to do it manually than using a GUI tool. Like that if something goes wrong you know how to fix it. Use Archwiki, article Fstab or something.
Also you need to fix that SWAP partition.
Archwiki-SWAP. It’s easy.
Yeah now I’m beginning to understand why GUI is not always a preferred way. I will surely start working on my knowledge about these… things.
What can I say. 25 years of Windows usage left a mark… 
It sounds good! Wish you the best of luck! There are always a bunch of us around here. We are mostly kind and helpful 
And final words of wisdom, until you know for sure what you’re doing…you should probably reboot after each change It makes it easier to figure out where you broke it.
One last addition…
I fixed the swap, guys, but honestly thanks to ChatGPT, since I wasn’t sure where to start because of having the swap partition created already.
And it’s working…
