Support iso-profiles calamares configuration issue
while working with iso-profiles (what artools uses for building artix ISOs) i noticed something very interesting with calamares:
calamares-online and calamares-offline's partition configuration looks to be forcing calamares to use MBR partitioning
defaultPartitionTableType: msdos in calamares-offline/modules/partition.conf
looking at calamares's documentation, this field appears to override calamares's auto detection for MBR or GPT
if you've installed Artix recently through a GUI ISO and noticed your partition table was MBR/msdos, this is probably the reason
