Stuck at loading initial ramdisk after fresh install
Context
I've decided to install arch on my pc and thought it wouldn't be too hard because all my hardware is compatible, but after following through with Learn Linux TV's manual arch install tutorial, i was stuck at loading initial ramdisk. I tried to search about it but as i'm new to linux and arch, I don't understand half of what they're saying and almost all of them are not on first install. I have downloaded it on a seperate drive from my windows install.
Briefed:
Attempted manual arch installation on new drive(didn't install any other OS on it or basically anything at all) by following Learn Linux TV's tutorial on it. Rebooted to it displaying 'loading initial ramdisk', tried archinstall, still stuck at loading initial ramdisk. Cannot understand the solutions provided because monkey brain and linux newbie. All of the problems i saw on forums were all not right after fresh install(so no error messages for me).
