Is there a way to get an iso with a kernel prior to 5.7 so I can get this installed and then perhaps switch to LTS kernel?
I looked for the first release version but am unable to find a place to download it. Perhaps include an LTS kernel option on an upcoming release, but in the meantime provide a link to download an version with an LTS kernel?
I just tested and verified that yes this is my problem. I downloaded Manjaro with the 54 kernel (which is a download option at the Manjaro download page) and it installed without any issue whatsoever. So it appears that the 54 lts kernel would be the desirable option, if that is possible. And I would really appreciate it - I would like to convert all my machines to Garuda and stop using manjaro entirely. Thank you!
