Question

When installing BlackArch via the netinstall iso on a USB, once I'm at the partition drives section of the installer and select my drive, it shows no partitions on the drive, only free space, despite Windows already being on the drive.

You can create the necessary partitions for BlackArch (root/swap) manually with fdisk and then skip the cfdisk step and set your mount points. And you obviously set the boot mount on the existing efi partition created by Windows.

I'd recommend first testing this on a mock system.

Thanks for the tip. Will do
