I was attempting to install arch to internal while booted to the usb "bash splat.sh /dev/mmcblk0" and when it runs the "parted /dev/mmcblk0 mklabel gpt" command, it returns "splat.sh: cannot parted /dev/mmcblk0 mklabel gpt".

Above that command it did state "umount: /dev/mmcblk0: not mounted"

Parted is no longer available with chrome OS I believe check.
/usr/bin/
For available tools.
Fdisk and cfdisk still available.
Also check that all the indivual partition is umounted not just the disk.
/dev/mmcblk0pX where x is 1,2,3 ect.
Lsblk for list.

What would be the equivalent fdisk command for line 165 from the splat script?

EDIT: I do not see /dev/mmcblk0 listed in cfdisk

What version of chrome OS and channel are you on? I'm not sure how to best advice without further details.

You might find this much more helpful I would consider this script deprecated at this point.

Alternative is Kali Linux has a IMG prepped ready to DD on to a USB. if u plan to install to MMC I suggest grabbing that image then u can clone the kernel and boot partition with a full set of tools. Arch install from there on is standard.
