"Deploying Image" hang during installation (two separate machines, six months apart) #64

Description

@balk23

Installation hangs on "deploying image" even after 45 minutes. No errors. I've tried to install Aeon on a desktop with a Ryzen 5900x and 64gb of ram, and a laptop with a Ryzen AI 9 365 with 24gb of ram. The desktop was attempted six months ago, the laptop was attempted two days ago (5/19/2026) and today (5/21/2026).

Each instance resulted with it just hanging on "deploying image".

Steps to reproduce:

  1. write Aeon-Installer.x86_64.raw.xy to a usb stick using Impression from Tumbleweed.
  2. Insert usb stick into computer
  3. Stare at screen for 45 minutes as no progress is made/no errors are displayed.

Expected behavior
Aeon installs

Other notes:
I've tried with both secure boot enabled and disabled, there
