Manual Arch install dual partitions setup - "Boot partition not found"

[Britnell]

What correction or addition do we need?

Hey,

trying to install arch manually in a dual partition i kept on getting error "Boot partition not found"
took me a couple of back and forth to figure it out so wanted to document here, for any one else who hasn't done it before
I found loads of guides all doing it differently, but actually its easy to setup jsut with the installer

manual install

follow instructions

Partitions

in the archinstall > disk > partitioning :
You should have an empty partition available, if not make space and delete / resize another one.

• Manual Partitioning

create a boot partition :

• 1GiB
• fat32
• mountpoint : /boot
• flags : boot, esp
  i already had a 100MB boot partition from windows, but arch needs its own separate one

create a linux partiton out of the rest :
-btrfs

• for btrfs i wasn't able to edit mountpoint , but can add subvolumes instead
• create / and /home subvolumes
  i once ran arch "suggested partition layout" to see how it would set things up,
  and it created two separate ones, it created '/' root with 47GiB , and '/' home with the rest,
  but for submodules don't need the size

done

then follow the rest from the manual

It saved me the flags were missing, thanks for the guide, i mark the boot partition flags and it worked fine
