    Any instructions involving systemd are bound to fail with antiX.

    Another option might be logging in by some kind of terminal mode & running the install script there.

    Ctrl + Alt + F2 allows you to login (again) via console while X is running.

    Or to reboot & not load X at all: on the grub boot screen, press “e” (no quotes) to edit manually. Go to end of “linux” line and press (space) and “3” (again, no quotes). Ctrl-X boots. This brings you to runlevel 3, which does not load X. Only for this session (not permanent).
