I will ship a new ISO with this fix. If you want to test it on the current ISO, you can run a Live Environment (i.e., in a VM) and upgrade the system by sudo pacman -Syyu in order to have the latest installer version. In order to use pacman in Live Environment, you need first to set keys:

sudo pacman-key --init
sudo pacman-key --populate
sudo pacman -Syyu

Thank you for your report.
