Stuck on "Syncing all file systems", how can I fix this?

Issues & Assistance
1

Hi! I just installed Garuda Linux today but when I tried to update the system I was stuck on this:

Post your terminal/konsole in- and output as text (no pictures) from:

(11/11) Syncing all file systems...

There was also another problem where if I maximize Firefox it crashes but that's off topic.
Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks!

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.

Very likely the same thing as

Therefore,

should help. But, I wouldn’t reboot until you’re sure the update process has completed successfully (i.e. read the output).

disable from pamac and pacman the AUR support. then try to update! if you have some AUR package you can be helped by 'paru' command.

fyi: there are already many of related threads about the exactly same issue!
