Arch booting but not running on Macbook Pro

I've installed a few linux distro before, and I never had issues like that.
I tested the ISO with VM Box, working, flashed the USB bootable with Etcher, rufus, macos shell, then the boot manager detect the "Arch efi boot" on the USB stick, I boot, main menu, I click on "Install Arch x64" (without speech) and then a black screen with just a little white underscore in the top left corner, and then nothing, after 2h I shut down the pc, and try again with another iso, flasher, usb stick, ...
Some hypothesis ?

Thank you
