Reporting issues
Have you updated Anarchy before using it?
If so, great, move on to the next step.
Otherwise make sure to always update Anarchy before installing Arch with it, because your bug might have already been fixed, without you even knowing.
You can update Anarchy in the main menu, by pressing 2 or executing anarchy -u
.
If you have not updated before installing Arch using Anarchy, we will send you to this page and expect you to redo your whole installation before reporting the bug again.
A new release might have been uploaded after you've already downloaded it, so unless you just downloaded and burned the iso, re-download it and try recreating the problem again.
No matter what problem you've stumbled upon, you're almost certainly not the first one to do so. Check online for any existing issues, either by copy-pasting the error message, prepending "arch" to the search or even adding your specific hardware to the search (useful for laptops and any driver issues - wireless, bluetooth, ...).
You next stops should be the Arch Wiki and Arch Forums.
We can't and won't help you if you don't try and submit as much information as you can. This includes logs, screenshots (or pictures of the terminal/error message), videos etc.
You can share a log of your installation by choosing "Return To Command Prompt" (option 4) in the final menu or when an error occurs and you are dropped into a terminal.
You may also locally view the installation log by choosing "View Install Log" (option 5).
Executing cat /tmp/anarchy.log | nc termbin.com 9999
will return a short url, which you should write down and share along with any other info you may have.
