Ermanno You are awesome!! Respect to you, Sir. I've been following your channel since 1 year and Its remarkable that you are still giving out these monthly and yearly updates.

[@fortune6590]

Don't forget to remove the /arch-install-base and ~/arch-install-base directories when you're done. Otherwise you'll have scripts laying around with your passwords in plaintext.

[@chrisperkins1502]

That was a great video. It's really cool that you've made those bash scripts. When I first watched one of your videos to do my first installation, you were saying "sudo" (pseudo) and editing with nano. Now you've really got it together ; )

[@DanielGarcia-jv7xs]

At 23:30 when you open the gnome.sh with vim in the firewall settings you are opening ports 1025 to 65535 for both tcp and udp. It sets this setting for the public zone in firewalld. Is there a reason you are doing this? I'm confused. Isn't that unsafe?

[@Appalling68]

Hey Ermanno. I was just thinking about you wondering, "where's Ermanno's content"? Nicely served up if I may say so. Thank you!

[@eflinux]

Hey, I know I'm not posting much these days; it became kind of difficult to post regularly since my new position. I'll see how it will go in the next weeks.

[@Appalling68]

@@eflinux No worries. I know you're super busy so it just makes it more fun and interesting to have to wait and then get super great content. Don't spread yourself too thin!

[@act.13.41]

Ermanno, thank you for the work you do. I have thoroughly enjoyed watching your videos and I have learned so much. rEFInd seems to be simple enough. I am guessing that it should be pretty easy to replace grub, but I hate to screw up and have to reload an awesome system. Ermanno, would it be possible to do a video showing how to do that? I don't like asking people to do something that is not trivial, but you are the man that we trust. Please?

[@act.13.41]

After reading up on it, apparently BRTFS is not compatible with anything but GRUB, so I guess I will stick with GRUB. LOL

[@joir2000]

Thanks for the video!

[@sudosuraj]

0:25 you saved my life 😐💓

[@AvocadoCotijaCheeseConnoisseur]

Thank you

[@isemaevd]

Thank you a lot!

[@SweetPoppy5]

I get an error can't connect to my wifi it says invalid network name 😒 even though I type the name correctly I've tried 2000 times

[@ezrarocco260]

@EF - Linux Made Simple i have done every thing just like you did but when I get to the login for the first time I am not able to it just says the login in incorrect

[@pwbandwidth]

If LightDM prevents you from booting (for whatever reason), press CTRL + ALT + F3 to switch tty Then you can check logs for systemd and lightdm from there.

[@gogurt82]

It says my login is incorrect at 20:55 ... I did configure the username and password in the script part but for some reason it is not working for me and I'm not sure what I did wrong

[@CeReaLKiLLeRz]

same to me. i change the user and the pass and cant login.

[@eflinux]

Re you talking about the root user or the normal user?

[@gogurt82]

@@eflinux The normal user

[@eflinux]

I’d try to login with the root user and change password for the normal user again.

[@gogurt82]

@@eflinux using both the 'chpasswd' password and the password I set for the root user, it did not work. I am going to just restart over again but do it without the script

[@ALIAlakber]

Is it the same installation if I'm installing it on my hard drive and not on a a virtual box?

[@morenteria2988]

Hi Ermanno, you look good my friend. How you feeling?

[@xsilverth4397]

can you make a video on how to install arch with zen kernel and refind and reiser4 i didnt find any videos with reiser4

[@dragonek_gnu_linux_pl]

gdm is not in gnome package? cool video like always :)

[@Mizosu]

i tried the gitlab link in the desc and it asked me to sign in. Signed in and it says i dont have permission to get the file. Please help i thought it was public.

[@rollingthunderful]

is there a reason you use ALL=(ALL) for sudo instead of using the WHEEL group? i’m modifying your script to work for me and i haven’t seen that used before. thanks so much for these videos and scripts they’re super helpful!

[@nico1337]

Why is it sda and not vda for this install?

[@clarkcodm9263]

nice!

[@momomaniac1234]

Sir 😃 i learned two things new in this video it's zram and rfind Sir have you tried micro as text editor?

[@Dampferfrosch]

... i do not understand the reason for deploying a monthly install video ... is there a monthly diff in the proc of how to inst arch ?

[@eflinux]

It's a different ISO for one, and every month I install with different combinations. It might not be interesting to everyone, but if it is just only for some, it is already worth for me doing it.

[@Dampferfrosch]

@@eflinux Grazie - have a nice sunday evening !

[@jamirvillarosa7924]

well it's fun to do. ermano is the only one doing this then we have consistent latest arch installation guide each month. no reason to be intimidated to install arch at this point lol.

[@PankajSharma-ir7fb]

I think you should show how to install arch and others like Ubuntu with snapper configured exactly like opensuse where in one can boot from a snapshot and do a rollback with a simple command. No need to boot from any boot able iso for restore.

[@ayushakarsh6546]

I think you can do the same in btrfs file system very quickly using timeshift gui. I have been using that on my MX Linux 21 XFCE

[@ygjt76v0-----]

Sadly dont have strong internet, this is linux distro are not bloated

[@ricardcontra6651]

Gracias por tus videos pero creo entender con teclado latín es que hablas español por tanto te pediría videos en español para que a los que el idioma es un problema

[@akankshc5707]

first

[@mustafababdullah2485]

Took me a week to find out WTF and the people making all these wild decisions need to put it in black and white! If I had not had pamac installed I would have never figured out what all 5 extra so called firmwares are because the wiki doesn't tell nothing but the hacked up the firmware package like idiots they have become! The iso keeps getting bigger without getting anything better! My take on it is that someone needs to leave things alone that are not broken!

[@Feyangel23]

that is quite a naive and ignorant comment
