Don't try to abuse the archinstall script, follow https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Installation_guide - make sure your network works correctly and in doubt use "pacman -v --debug …" commands for more details on problems.

"Don't try to abuse the archinstaller script"
Sure, is that the reason it's showing "GPGME error: failed to synchronize all databases"?

error: failed to synchronize all databases (invalid or corrupted database (PGP signature))There's certainly some network problem and the installer script apparently cannot handle that situation (nor does it detail what's wrong)
It's not meant for you to install archlinux, it's meant for you to script custom mass deployment - something "wannabeeeearchieeee" capitulating in front of that message is rather not doing.

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.
