[SOLVED](VM) Installed LightDM wrong and don't know what to do

All this is in a VM so it doesn't matter too much.

I forgot about a few things when installing LightDM (namely forgetting to look at the installation guide) and now I'm stuck at this screen and don't know what to do.

All I did was install the lightdm package and enable it using systemctl.
Do I have to just ditch the VM and start a new one? I feel like there's something else I can do but I couldn't find anything.

1. Read the Code of Conduct and only post thumbnails http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Cod … s_and_code

2. Switch to a TTY and disable it.

After switching to TTY on my computer, not knowing how to unswitch, and then restarting my computer to unswitch, I was able to fix the problem.
Thx.
