Hello @ycom1 Could you share the logs? You can run `upload-logs` on a terminal to get a URL or you can get it directly from the installer when it fails. ---

It would share a URL that you can paste here. It uploads to a paste site which is common across everyone using Calamares. It does not upload to RebornOS 🙂 It does not contain any sensitive information like passwords ---

It seems like `kalendar` no longer exists. You can replace it with `merkuro`. It is a part of KDE applications : [Arch Linux - kde-applications (x86\_64) - Group Details](https://archlinux.org/groups/x86_64/kde-applications/) 1. Run the below command on the ISO in a terminal: ```bash sudo sed -i 's/kalendar/merkuro/g' /etc/calamares/modules/packagechooser_DE.conf ``` 1. Then **turn off** the Update toggle-switch in the ISO Welcome app which launches the installer. 2. Launch the Online or Offline installer by clicking on the button. This time it should run successfully. EDIT: Prefixed with sudo ---

I’m a bit ashamed, I could have red the install log myself most probably, but THANKS to your intervention everything went fine after this preset. ---

This was a new problem. This was not in the install log. We’ll release an update soon that the installer will automatically pull, if connected to the internet. Until then, the workaround should help those who are stuck ---
