Hello. I'm trying to install Arch Linux.
I've prepared a usb to boot into, I can boot into it, but when the prompt appears from Arch, I get a repeating LOAD and UNLOAD audit log in the terminal. i can type commands, but it seems like its not working.

That's reflector trying to update your mirrorlist and apparently failing for lack of network connection.
Add "audit=0" to the kernel parameters.
Offline
I edited "audit=0" in the Kernal parameter, The audit message is fixed but the command window still doesn't open and stuck.

And Sometimes it got Kernal Panic and i have to reboot...
Offline
Do you have a picture of such panic?
When the boot is "stuck", can you switch the TTY (ctrl+alt+f3)?
Also try to add "initcall_blacklist=simpledrm_platform_driver_init" to the kernel parameters ![]()

Yes i can switch TTY (ctrl+alt+f2) and it still stucks.. i cant even type command.

So it's waiting for your network and nouveau seems to act up.
As for the network, there seems a wired connection but that doesn't get you internet access?
As for nouveau, use "nomodeset" as kernel parameter, that will prevent any kind of GUI but hopefully allow you to proceed and install the nvidia blob.

So i have to enter "audit=0", "initcall_blacklist=simpledrm_platform_driver_init", "nomodeset" all together?
Offline
So i tried all together, it stops at Booting a command list.

That looks like a bootloader?
You added those parameters to the line that says "vmlinuz-linux root=UUID=…"? Without commas and quotes?
Remove nomodeset again and focus on
As for the network, there seems a wired connection but that doesn't get you internet access?
Is there a network cable plugged into the system? Does it connect to anything?
Offline
Yes Its connected to network cable.
I added the params like this. is it right? https://imgur.com/a/3a5SUXv

Unplug that, you're not getting a lease on it for whatever reason.
Edit: wrt. your parameters: "audit", not "aduit"

Please don't bump. Edit your previous post if nobody has replied. This isn't whatsapp.
The HP Omen is visible on the posted photos ![]()
If you re-enable the audit, does reflector still complain?
Can you now switch the TTY?
Offline
Sorry about that. yes it still keeps showing i guess. i can switch tty but it don't respond. i cannot type if i switch to other tty. https://imgur.com/a/4pplYl4
andddd it shows again with kernel panic.
i only added "initcall_blacklist=simpledrm_platform_driver_init" param

Can you scroll up the panic to see its head?
"acpi=off" might prevent that but also break a couple of features.
Is there a windows installation?
Offline
No. There was a windows installation but i deleted. i tryed only acpi=off and it kinda turns on. i cannot type any command. https://imgur.com/a/PVgJdRN

"great", more or less.
You should be able to install arch from there, but running it w/o acpi support will be tedious.
You can also try any of
* acpi=noirq
* pci=noacpi
* pnpacpi=off
* acpi_osi=! acpi_osi="Windows 2015"
For the latter see https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windo … inacpi-osi

i tried 4 of them.
* acpi=noirq = same with upper post.
* pci=noacpi = stuck at Booting a command list.
* pnpacpi=off = https://imgur.com/a/q6tuo0F stuck at this sequence.
* acpi_osi=! acpi_osi="Windows 2015" = https://imgur.com/a/ngbTgCw stuck at this sequence. edit) it boots but still LOAD/UNLOAD messages. edit 2 ) i waited couple times and... https://imgur.com/a/Kt8loI7 this happen! but still it got audit Load Unload spams.
i didnt added initcall_blacklist=simpledrm_platform_driver_init. is it okay if i boot w/o this prompt?

You may want to record your experiences with the specific model at https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Laptop/HP
Disabling the audot is probably not strictly required?
(Though the audit subsystem is also not critical for general use)
And please always remember to mark resolved threads by editing your initial posts subject - so others will know that there's no task left, but maybe a solution to find.
Thanks.

Now, can I connect to the internet and do the Nvidia stuff you were talking about earlier?
Offline
You can install and use the nvidia driver after installing the system and you can install the system if you can connect to the internet.
The wired connection should™ work automatically, for wifi you'll have to connect w/ iwctl first.
