After installing antergos with windows as a dual boot. I am only greeted with a black screen and a cursor. I’ve tried doing some things that were recommended on other forum pages but after doing Ctrl + Shift + F2 and I get to this screen. None of the commands I put in give a response they just pass like It was never inputted.

Cant boot into Antergos after installation

@brokenankle keystrokes needs to be [Ctrl+Alt+F2]
And it will greet with login prompt -
@joekamprad I have tried to do that It does greet me with a login prompt after I do Ctrl+Alt+F2, but right after that its just a black screen that gives me random messages.
I have been able to get past this screen once by blacklisting nouveau so I know what it’s probably supposed to look like after I do Ctrl+Alt+F2 and login and the screen I get does not have that root path looking thing (sorry I don’t know what its called) like every line I put on that black screen is empty. -
Can you give some specs about hardware, if not from system itself you may know it from buying.
There are some very new nvidia graphics that get problems with nouveau, as i can see on other posts here. -
@joekamprad it’s a Intel i7 7700hq or something along those lines and a Nvidia gtx 950 this is on an Asus laptop. 16 GB ram if that matters and a 128 gb SSD and a 1 tb harddrive
