[Solved] Installation Failed, Package Manager error

[Ishan]

Hi, I have been trying to install EndeavourOs(with kde) but got soo many errors…

The first one-

Calamares installer does not open when clicking on online mode, but I fixed that by doing this

sudo cp/ etc/calamares/settings_online.conf /etc/ calamares/settings.conf
sudo calamares

The current one-

During install, it says Installation failed, Package manager error
Details: the package manager could not make changes to the installed system. The command

packman

returned error code 1.

I have given the screenshots of both the installer and terminal

Try the instructions in the following link:

Calamares initialization failed

Try this Reboot off the ISO to get a clean start Run these two commands for your install type: Online: sudo cp /etc/calamares/settings_online.conf /etc/calamares/settings.conf sudo calamares -D8 | tee endeavour-install.log Offline: sudo cp /etc/calamares/settings_offline.conf /etc/calamares/settings.conf sudo calamares -D8 | tee endeavour-install.log

Log files and bug reports

You can actually help us improve the installer by sending us your log file when you encounter a problem during installation. Calamares makes a log file by default and you can retrieve it by copy-paste the following in the terminal:

xed /home/liveuser/endeavour-install.log

Or Pastebin it and show the URL in the forum:

cat /home/liveuser/endeavour-install.log | eos-sendlogs

This will upload the log to ix.io and create a short URL to the log file.

You could use the eos-sendlog tool and post the URL you will get.

Don’t mention it! I am glad you were able to install your system!

My post was meant to troubleshoot the issue you were having but if the instructions in the link helped you to solve the problem then even better.

Have fun with your system and welcome to the community!
