You've made things more difficult (especially for me) as needed. When partitioning the USB don't type in /boot fpr the boot partition. The Manjaro Installer was set up properly by the team: when you've selected [x] GPT and use the drop down menu there is an option to use /boot/efi for booting. Use this and there is absolutely no hassle typing in commands for noobs to get the thing running. Thank you for your videos - you made me happy my CinnaManjaro is now running as expected.
First live boot disk with persistence I came across was Tails. But it's not practical for my uses. It's so secure it slows everything down to a crawl. When I get this done I might be able to test my game on other peoples computer without saving it. Thanks.
Sometimes you have to format the drive first. I'm a windows guy, in windows you might not see your new usb drive either until this is done. Type "format" in the search bar in your pc's menu bar, then find the drive and accept NTFS (you're going to reformat it anyway during the install). Now Majaro should see the drive.
Once again pretty straight to the point. Very nice. Now I'm wondering if you can do the same with SteamOS on USB. I didn't get it to work but I'm only installing Linux for the first time today.
After creating the Boot and / partitions I do not see the "Install Boot Loader on:" selection menu. I'm trying to install Manjaro KDE-Plasma version 21.3.7.
3:32 Install boot loader on ..... I my installation, this was not an option, I hope it still works without this. I am installing Manjaro Wynsdey 24.0.3
My system crashes after around 10 seconds once I start installing onto the second drive. It completely powers down and restarts without posting. I shut it down by holding the power button and restart the system, and now in the BIOS neither of the USB's are bootable. If I boot into Windows then the second USB requires formatting to be usable. The original USB created with Rufus is completely unusable with it only showing 3.81mb/3.97 free on the usb. I cannot seem to recover the full memory capacity through various methods such as Diskpart for example. I now have 2 effectively dead USB's as I tried this twice, thinking maybe the first USB was just old and the install pushed it too hard. Now I know something else is wrong and would warn others to beware. Does anyone have any advice on how to recover these USB's? :( Thanks!
@@agiledevart That's just a drive then...not persistent data! What's there for those that want to make an actual Live USB with persistent data (in the same way they do for all other distros)?

Thanks man, you helped me a lot. Greetings from Mexico, nice video.

Try Slax
Hi, I have a problem when booting; it displays an "out of memory" error code.
Thanks. It works charmingly
So I guess I do need a second usb, i was up all night trying to install Manjaro on a usb but it kept giving an error
Hey my USB does not appear on the selectable devices, u tried formating the USB to diferent formats withou no luck, any ideas?
mine neither
You can't install it on the same USB you're running the installer from

With regard to my previous comment the installer is Calamares version 3.2.60-7

why is it necessary to install manjaroo twice??

Yes you only have to do it once
If I remove the flash drive, I have to do all the steps /temp/boot again?
No, you only have to do it once
Is there no way of doing this with just one usb? Not even if you partition it beforehand?
nope, not possible. You can't swap out usb drives when the OS you are currently running is looking for it's own source usb drive. Kapish?
Interesting
On reebot I stuck on grub

Thanks!
To anyone else that runs into this problem, I recovered the drives by reformatting to exFAT format on my Macbook thankfully.
Will the final USB drive have persistence?
Yes it will. It's not a live USB, but a full installation
@@agiledevart That's just a drive then...not persistent data!
What's there for those that want to make an actual Live USB with persistent data (in the same way they do for all other distros)?
can i only use 1 usb drive?
It dies not make sense to use more than one USB drive, drive have a 'take away' Linux, does it?
wow this is installing slow
use a full ssd drive and use an ssd to usb adapter. yes, normal usb drives are extremely slow.
