EndeavourOS is something I’ve been able to install countless times before, and have used it exclusively for nearly 6 months straight this past year. I switched back to Windows for awhile, but now I can not get EndeavourOS to install. Hell, I can’t even get to the installation.
I tried to install it over a week ago, and am attempting to do so once more, but it’s just not happening. Whenever I load up the USB, I always end up on this screen here after all the text cycles through, with it not allowing me to type anything with my keyboard. The only thing I noticed is when starting up the USB when all the modules and whatever else are being enabled or whatever, I see the Nvidia module as failed, with it saying that it’s blacklisted. Not sure if that’s the issue, but like I said I can’t type anything with the keyboard to even try to figure out what’s going on.
I think I found the problem, with that being the USB I was using to install these distros. I guess it’s finally gone to shit.
Like, it legit didn’t matter which distro I tried installing, whether it be Endeavour, Garuda, or Arcolinux I’d be met with a blank black screen, with EndeavourOS being the only one that’d eventually load, but I’m assuming that’s with it defaulting to the open source drivers that won’t work.
The only distros that I tried and could get to install was Fedora (and Nobara which is based on it), and I don’t like Fedora at all anymore.
Switching to a different USB seems to have solved my problem, with the USB loading properly now and presenting the boot options, as well as getting to the desktop for the install to take place.
