what should i do now, i need my pc to work in 2 days
My advice, for what it's worth:
Start again but use one of the iso images that install a working desktop. I'd start with one of Weekly ISO images as they are more up to date but if you have problems try one of the Official ISO's

It only came to me recently that you are the same user I helped who couldn't log in and didn't understand the concept of the 'root' user.
imho you've overreached yourself attempting to install from the base iso.
"Base ISOs allow for a fully customised installation, which is done in a TTY and is intended for knowledgeable users"

Other users here would be more likely to have been able to help you if you'd shown more willingness, and / or had the ability, to post actual logs where requested.

That said if you do decide to persevere with the base iso install I wish you success.

well, if that's the case, maybe reload what you were using before in your very first post on this forum, Manjaro, they do have an i3 community version which i think is what you were aiming for here.   And in Manjaro, load virtualbox, and when you get time, load the base image and work through it slow and steady and learn.   That way, all is good for you, work done, get to learn in a vm environment, gains the knowledge and competency to then do it for real, if you wanted to eventually.   Good luck friend.

"not so fast"... you for real?   Nothing other than patience has been shown from your first post (how to create a bootable .iso from within Manjaro...), so "fast" is most certainly an inappropriate word to use....and did you actually search for this error?  I did a simple search and the very first return most definitely gave a potential solution, that'll be the first of over 3000 results....  big hint -try a different search engine if DandG has an issue.
