I tried to install Arch Linux on my old faithful latitude 7490. After partitioning and formatting the drive I tried to mount the root partition and got this random glitch. When I unmount it the glitch stops. Maybe my laptop is trying to tell me I'm not ready for Arch 😅

I haven't seen something like this before so I thought I'd share.

In the video: The screen of a laptop showing Arch Linux liveboot terminal. After creating partition table and formatting the partitions. I try to mount thebroot partition to the liveboot filesystem. The mounting succeeds but the text on the screen starts to shift andnjump eratically. Looks like the whole image shifts. Then I try unmounting the partition and the screen goes back to normal.
