Arch Linux: A ℂ𝕠𝕞𝕗𝕪 Install Guide

[@waozer]

thanks for this calm install guide, usually when installing arch using other guides i get very angry and break my thinkpad and start eating the internal components, it usually takes like 50 minutes to calm down after that and by then i've ruined 8 friendships and got a divorce. I really appreciate it.

I thought the Archlinux install wiki was a bit complicated - and I followed couple of other youtube vids - and had lots of issues. I find THIS guy - followed him exactly as HE followed the wiki and everything worked!. I can't believe he's only has 7K subscribers - he is a fantastic teacher. If I can find some way to buy him a coffee I'll be happy to contribute...

I'm happy you found my video useful! Good luck on your new Arch system!

[@mathisblair2798]

I'm about to make my third attempt to install arch linux. And this video seems on the surface, like it may be the simplest so far. And I love the KDE plasma install at the end as that was my intention once installed.

[@thatoneocto]

The arch wiki sucks ngl, doesn’t even include boot loader in the install part of the wiki when even Gentoo foes

[@bc100dev]

Hey, ever heard of "sudo rm -rf /*"? If not, I dare you to try it out in a command line. I suggest doing it on a VM (Virtual Machine) because it is crazy.

[@tsukiortu]

@@thatoneocto I was about to say this the wiki is cool and all but it really only shows how to just barely get it running if at all. The second half with the bootloader is definitely a struggle. They should add some full install examples so you can do it a few times to get used to doing it a specific way then be able to go back and customize it.

While partitioning disks, cfdisk will by default choose sda, but make sure that’s the drive you want to use as your main boot, and not your USB. If you need a list of your drives use lsblk, if you try to write to your USB, you’ll probably fuck up the install.

You forgot one thing. Before generating the grub file, you should install the microcode for your CPU. It's used to apply security and performance patches to your CPU. For amd, it's: "sudo pacman -S amd-ucode" and for intel it's: "sudo pacman -S intel-ucode". Nevertheless, great video!

[@cabinhead8177]

Hey if you mess with drives a lot you should generate your fstab with genfstab -U /mnt intead of just genfstab /mnt. It uses the drive ids instead of /dev/sda1 and /dev/sda2. This is good because it can cause problems if whats in those folders changes and drive ids do not

[@Discoshelf.]

Plss help me

[@royflowers99]

Exactly, if your sda drive fails and you have multiple drives in your system (even a cd drive) they will all be shifted down by default which can cause some serious issues, even the arch Linux wiki recommends generating your fstab with the -U flag to ensure that it checks the UUID instead of the dev/ name

[@Krepppa253ButFake]

[@ulascanzorer]

Small thing to note: I have set up my machine using this guide and eventhough I had different problems during my 7-8 months of usage, I could resolve them, expect for the one I had today. I updated the system and I didn't have enough space in my boot partition (which was set to 100M). Because of this I could not boot it again, even when I tried to fix things with the live usb installer. I believe that this issue could be resolved if I had more free time but I had to get the laptop going so I installed Manjaro linux and had to delete my drive. I just want to say that maybe it is safer to give your boot partition 300-500M just in case something like this happens.

Hey everyone, for those who followed all the steps but after rebooting, the GRUB bootloader just dont show up, i think i have a solution. Reading on the wiki page i found out that some UEFI firmwares require a bootable file at a known location before they will show. To fix that run this command on the chroot bash: efibootmgr -u if you dont see any arch or grub related boot devices run this command: grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=/boot/efi --removable That worked for me. Hope it helps other people.

bro you made my wish come true, let me tell you my story, as a game developer and former software developer first time I wanted to learn Linux I did not know what distro to use so I was just surfing the web and saw Arch Linux logo and fell in love with it but then I realized that people say arch is difficult to learn and so on, I installed Ubuntu which I did not like because it was just like windows not to mention the orange color ... A year passed and I'm still on Windows, so I decided to install Debian this time, I ended up reinstalling Debian 3 times, I just could not find the right forums and repositories so I would end up deleting and modifying important config files basically it was not as user-friendly as people say. Last night I decided to make my wish come true. It's the best and user-friendly distro out there, I've managed to install and work my way around using Arch Wiki which is damn good, it's so powerful. Thanks man, for making my wish come true. BTW I run Arch Linux😆 The key to fight the giant monster called Arch Linux is "Patience"

[@_Sophi.]

Quite possibly one of the most useful videos on KZbin! *I just want to detail a problem I ran into when first installing arch* Fsr installing onto dev/sda* did not work, however upon running lsblk again I found dev/nvme which was correct for me.
