Hello

I’ve been trying to install EndeavourOS on my Pi 4 for the past couple of weeks, and I keep getting the create-pacman-keyring failed to finish in 20mins error. My log shows it’s in the process of installing linux-firmware, which I think is taking about 15mins (I tried manually initializing the keyring and updating/upgrading packages and they ended up finishing). My internet connection isn’t horrible, and I have tried editing the mirror list. I feel like the installation will complete, if I can change the timeout value. I did try to change the timeout values in the shellprocess_initialize_pacman.conf files, in both /etc/calamares/modules/ and ~/configs/calamares/modules/ . Is there a way to change that timeout value? Any help would be, very, appreciated! Thank you.

      That thought crossed my mind, but I was hoping it would fix it. After I set the locale/timezone and my date and time were correct, I could correctly curl kernel.org, it just failed before it even got to the linux-firmware package. I’m not sure why. Maybe I can figure out how to modify the timeout, since I was able to manually initialize the keyring and update/upgrade packages without an error. Or, I should just figure out what exactly I need to do, to mimic the gui setup itself and run everything from a terminal.
