Can't boot into official Arch linux installation system

[Hp laptop] So i created a bootable USB using rufus and tried to run it. Grub runs perfectly well, but when i try to press "Arch Linux install medium" the system can't load, being stuck on "Copying rootfs image to RAM...", and then goes back to Grub. I tried recreating bootable USB in ISO and DD methods, but that didn't help. What can I do to fix the issue?

Re: Can't boot into official Arch linux installation system

- Try booting with kernel parameter debug only and make a photo of the screen
- or, try booting with kernel parameters noapic acpi=off only and tell us if booted successfully
- or, try disabling all Network Devices into the Firmware Settings (if UEFI machine) / BIOS Settings (if BIOS machine)

Booting with debug parameter

Booting with noapic acpi=off parameters
Nothing worked, as can be seen

- Try booting with hpet only
- or, try booting with tsc=unstable only

What CPU do you have?

Booting with both parameters has led to the same outcome
After ~2 seconds of this message it goes back to grub

What if you try this https://archive.archlinux.org/iso/2021. … x86_64.iso ?

archlinux-2022.11.01-x86_64.iso enables copy-to-RAM by default*. It can be disabled with the boot parameter copytoram=n.
