I’m looking for a Debian based distro that has the same install process as arch. I hate bloated distros and haven’t been able to find anything yet. Anyone know of a distro like this?

    I’d be the last person on earth to defend debian or systemd-boot that has turned linux into a garage project, but could it be that you are booting the image in legacy/bios mode and attempt an EFI installation? This is hackish to do since /sys/…/efi… doesn’t exist.

    If you insure you are booting in efi mode then it should work out. If not chroot into the installation and follow the procedure of installing the bootloader manually.
