Re: installing help

Welcome to the Arch Linux forums.
How did you install Arch Linux?
Did you read https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Hyprland ?

Re: installing help

I put Arch into an ISO and installed it using the `archinstall` command; I have never read the wiki.

Re: installing help

Welcome to Arch Linux, diasuhuhd87au2huads.

As schard has pointed out, kindly read the ArchWiki page related to the software you seek to install, follow the instructions, and, should you encounter any issues, report back with the steps you took and any (erroneous) outputs.

In general, you may consider the ArchWiki as the main source of information for managing your Arch Linux installation, and it is expected that you have consulted it before asking a question in the forums. Since you have installed your system using `archinstall`, I suggest that you read the pages in "The distribution" section of the ArchWiki (https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Main_page) for a good understanding of what to expect from your system and how to manage it.

Understood, I'll take a look at the wiki.
