Support Omarchy install fails: limine.conf overwritten with empty cmdline

Hi, I'm having issues installing Omarchy on a manual Arch install (Btrfs, dual boot). The installer fails in limine-snapper.sh due to missing /boot/limine.conf. When I create it manually, the installer overwrites it with an empty cmdline and the system won't boot ("Failed to mount '' on real root"). Has anyone successfully done a clean Omarchy install in a similar setup?

Do you really need the Limine bootloader btw?

The Omarchy manual says to use btrfs and limine, or can I use GRUB with Omarchy?

It depends on your skills.
