The system was dropping to emergency mode during boot and showing "root account is locked" because /etc/group was missing from airootfs. Without this file, sulogin cannot properly authenticate the root user. - Add archiso/airootfs/etc/group with root group definition - Update profiledef.sh and profiledef-fast.sh to set correct permissions
Package fixes: - Add dhcpcd and iwd packages for network setup (installer uses these) - Replace deprecated exfat-utils with exfatprogs Installer fixes: - Fix ROOT_PART_ORIG variable: save original partition path in format_partitions() before it's changed to /dev/mapper/cryptroot, so GRUB encryption config uses correct device UUID - Fix tzselect: run interactively before HEREDOC creation instead of embedding $(tzselect) which wouldn't work inside the heredoc
