A lot of arch users will get pissed as fuck at me but its ok to use arch install. I personally prefer manually installing arch and wouldnt want to do it any other way so - I dont use it. + I dont use it, btw (:

The offical arch installation guide and other resources on the arch wiki is a great way to - install arch though I also like to use distro tubes arch installation + guide alongside the resources. Some arch users may be pissed I dare tell people + to go watch a youtube video. I am sure most arch installation guides on youtube suck but + DT's video is killer. Plus its not a replacement for the wiki, its just to help follow it + a bit easier and act as a good jumping off point. +

+ Some things I gotta add is for me DT's video I linked doesnt work 100 percent. + When setting up grub it cant find the efi directory. You gotta use a switch to show that + command that fails the efi directory. I forgor the switch and I am too lazy to look it up + but you can find it if the --help flag. Also to dual boot with nasty nasty MS Windows(R) + you gotta install ntfs-3g for it to be able to read MS Windows(R) ntfs(R) Microsoft(R) partitions. + You also gotta set GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER=false in /etc/default/grub + and mount the MS Windows(R) directory in the efi directory for OS proper to work sometimes. +

+ + + + + +

After installing

+

+ Make sure you install a good ass DE or WM. No better DE than good old trusty xfce. Your also going to want lightdm + with that. Thunar is a quite useable file manager though you can betterize it with gvfs or another opinional packages + for cool fancy shit. Or for even more cool fancy things get something like spaceFM. Just fuck around tbh. +

+ If your sound fucking aint working right install sof-firmware. +

+ + + + + +

Nvidia drivers

+

+ A lot can change depending on many things and everything I say has only been tested on my machine so read + some fucking resources here: +

+ Guide for my system mostly and maybe yours: +
