Unable to create archlinux #2363

Description

Describe the bug

Orbstack can't create arch both in GUI or CLI. The output message is:

[-32098] create 'arch': make rootfs: image not found: {archlinux current arm64 default}

I had created arch on multiple machines, and recently I encountered this bug. I have googled but there aren't any similar cases. And it seems like only arch is unavailable(I've tried ubuntu and nixos).

To Reproduce

simply run orb create arch

Expected behavior
