reboot if not solved reboot again
Not solved lmao.
Installed sof_firmware as per other message, still not solved, but the sof_firmware missing message is gone now. Post sof_firmware image
Intel and nvidia?
If its intel and nvidia the try passing “ibt=off” on the kernel line in grub.
I'll try this after I get home
Intel cpu, nvidia gpu. Intel igpu is disabled in bios
Hopefully ibt=off will fix it for you.
Solved. What does that flag do?
See the Arch wiki link below, it explains it far better then I can. Look at Installation section 3

Glad it helped!
Chances are archinstall failed to install sddm or gdm or whatever it wanted to install correctly. Can you go into another tty? Ctrl+alt+F5 to change to an empty one.
To fix it, you'll need to be able to open that tty, in order to verify sddm is running through systemd (I assume you're using systemd, otherwise make sure it's enabled through whatever init system you're using)
Ttys won't open. The only key that the system reacts to afaik is the power key.
Disable HD audio in BIOS/EFI.
No need to thank me.
it says on the 10th line from the bottom that you're missing sof firmware
