Description of the issue

First off, I was encountering issues with Btrfs, as detailed in my previous report here: #3124. Now, I'm looking to install Arch from the latest commits to bypass the problem I'm facing with the current stable release.

I’m looking to install Arch from the latest commits, Here’s the deal: when I try to install the packages, git, python-pip, gcc, pkgconf, I get an error, something about the partition being too full. I checked the wiki for a fix, and it suggests running the command mount -o remount,size=SIZE /run/archiso/cowspace. But when I try that, I get an error saying cowspace doesn’t exist. So, I’m at a bit of a loss here, as it’s my first time building this from source.

By the way, I also tried running archinstall with python -m archinstall. The only packages that installed were git and python-pip, due to the space issue I mentioned. The installation seemed to go smoothly, with none of the previous problems I encountered. However, when I rebooted, the bootloader was completely absent. I’m not sure what I’ve missed here. It boots straight into Windows automatically. Even when I shut it down and spam F12 to access the boot options, I don't see systemd-boot or anything related to Arch.
