Garuda won't install from USB drive?

Just restart your pc and share output of

lsblk

And present it as text, not screenshot.

Dude just click Next! :smiley:
If you have issue during the install,
just try as I mentioned.
Close the Calamares( the install program window)
To open KDE Partition Manager --> Right-Click on Desktop -->
Show Krunner :mag: --> Search.. --> type: Partition --> Open it.
After you finished Partitioning --> Click on :white_check_mark: Apply button (at the left corner)
Close KDE Partition Manager
Restart your Notebook

Simply give more space to efi partition (500mb instead of 260mb)

Boot0002* UEFI:  USB DISK 3.0 PMAP, Partition 2~~~

Ok so it's not the issue.

Check your BIOS settings:

  1. Looking for "Secure Boot" entry if its enabled disable it.

  2. I have HP Elitebook with an old UEFI system,
    In my situation with the same error the solution was Changing the Boot Order,
    and Saved it Restart my laptop, than changed the Boot Order back, restart and after install was success.
