Okay so dumb ass me created new partitions using gnome disks from a mint live boot, and installed arch in them without formatting them again in the Arch installation, now I have some weird bugs because of that, how do I change the partitions owner to root without breaking the installed system?
The user and group of the partitions root is not the root user but whatever Mint has as a default user for its live boot
sudo chown <user> -R /path
sudo chgrp <group> -R /path
Or just
chown root:root
