@Schweeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

inxi -Faz no idea what this is

It is command. You run it in a terminal and then paste the output here as text in a code block.

[Schweeeeeeeeeeeeeeee]

[SGS]

Again from template.

Summary

Hello.

Without it, you will not receive any help from the Garuda team or your topic is likely to be closed without notice.

Before you open a new help request, read relevant sections of the Arch and Garuda wiki.
Thoroughly search your issue and any error messages in the forum and on the web.

Report everything you have already attempted to solve your problem.

Would also help if you don't put a hoop to jump through to access the GDoc.

@Schweeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Desktop: KDE Plasma 5.23.3

Then

@Schweeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

checked gnome and gnome desktop

This could be the problem

[Schweeeeeeeeeeeeeeee]

imma reinstall it again

[anon26187667]

You need to use the Gnome (community) edition to get Gnome desktop.
It's the second from bottom on the Garuda Linux | Download page.

[SGS]

@anon26187667

Gnome (community) edition

[anon26187667]

That's where it is, in the Community section.

[SGS]

Mate and cinnamon are community editions, IIRC @Naman
Barebones also not community, so just a typo?

[Schweeeeeeeeeeeeeeee]

i didnt want know it just looked like gnome and i checked it because i had no search and that kinda stuff i wanted the kde version what it installed on the usb drive im not sure if it did it on the ssd tho

[Schweeeeeeeeeeeeeeee]

do i need to check anything in the section where i checked the gnome desktop?

[filo]

No, start with the default apps and see how it goes.
Then update with the update command from terminal and then reboot

[Schweeeeeeeeeeeeeeee]

ok updating now

[Schweeeeeeeeeeeeeeee]

i just rebooted and did wait 7 minutes but im still getting stuck on the boot screen at loading initial ramdisk

[Schweeeeeeeeeeeeeeee]

I searched and found these other guys i think i have the same problem as they have
Frozen at boot - Loading initial ramdisk - #36 by pmead7399
Stuck on "Loading initial ramdisk..."
Stuck on loading initial ramdisk
Boot stuck at "Loading Initial Ramdisk"

[Schweeeeeeeeeeeeeeee]

I found this guy shes also stuck at linux zen imma do what he did and look if it works then

Zen kernel stuck at loading initial ramdisk

This implies that the NVIDIA driver package you have installed for linux-tkg-bmq is not compatible with linux-zen. Therefore, this isn't a resolvable issue. Either use the TKG kernel and drivers, or the "standard" Arch kernel(s) and drivers.

[Schweeeeeeeeeeeeeeee]

typed in this command idk what it does i think it installs the nvidia drivers im not sure tho im just gonna restart maybe it works maybe dont

sudo mhwd -a pci nonfree 0300

[Schweeeeeeeeeeeeeeee]

Didnt work as expected i think above thiis solution was some other stuff i defenitly not understand can somebody explain that stuff to me?
Or say what was the solution or the solutions in that topic

Zen kernel stuck at loading initial ramdisk

Check your video driver setup inxi -SMGCxxxaz mhwd -li pacman -Qs intel\|radeon\|amd\|nvidia bash -c 'for Xconf in $(ls /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/*.conf); do echo -e ==== $Xconf ; cat $Xconf ; done' bash -c 'for Xconf in $(ls /etc/modules-load.d/*.conf); do echo -e ==== $Xconf ; cat $Xconf ; done' bash -c 'for Xconf in $(ls /etc/modprobe.d/*.conf); do echo -e ==== $Xconf ; cat $Xconf ; done' journalctl -b -p3 --no-pager --no-hostname bash -c 'for Xlog in $(ls /var/log/Xorg.?.log); do echo -e ==== $…
