Installed blendOS, and apparently it didnt install

So i went through the installation and i manually partitioned cause i have cachyOS and windows on the same drive, and when i rebooted it just booted into my cachyos bootloader (limine) with no blendOS option. I tried grub, i tried sudo limine-update i tried looking through my boot options in BIOS, and i tried running os-prober (on cachyos) and it only said windows boot manager. i tried running the installer again and at the end it said something about update already being installed and you need to reboot but the script still said installation successful

You’re supposed to load into the gnome-initial-setup user Which starts the setup process The problem is we can’t figure out why exactly this happens

you should have used useradd so you could set that but uh you can just create a home folder
