    @mian196 What I meant was that I wanted to install Arch on my hard drive, and after configuring the installer, I got an error when I was about to install the packages, and there's nothing I can do about it 😞

    @mian196 How do I copy the logs from the terminal if it isn't installed—or isn't installed in the virtual machine yet?
