Hello everyone! Today I decided to install ArchLabs on an M.2 SSD. The installation process is successful, but in the end I get the result, as in the screenshot: instead of Lightdm, a black screen and colored dots. What is the problem? Thank you.
What is your graphics hardware?
You can stop LightDM from loading by adding systemd.unit=multi-user.target
as a kernel command line parameter, see https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Kernel_parameters#GRUB for the method.
Nvidia GeForce 9400 GT
Which driver is it using? I think you need either nouveau or the legacy nvidia-340xx driver.
If you don’t know which driver is in use then boot without LightDM (as I explained above) and run this command:
lspci -k | grep -iA2 'vga\|3d\|display'
Look for the “kernel driver in use” line.
The problem is localized. It was necessary to boot from a flash drive in UEFI mode, not BIOS. Thanks to all.
