Installing Arch Linux is EASY [ A Tutorial ] -- Linux for Newbs EP 1

[@jayvuillermin1414]

I enjoy your videos very much I must say! I am just fearful that if I install Arch it's like the final puzzle piece with fall into place.. The fault lines will shift like never before. The ground will shake. Mother Earth will cry out with a groan that hasn't been heard since Jesus' pet lizards escaped his terrarium. God WILL be furious. At y'all, not me.

[@_boux]

Some gripes with the archinstall part of the video: -Explaining what the different kernel types really are instead of meme-ing about it could be helpful -Skipping over the Profile option seems like a weird idea, since it will also handle installing required components for desktop environments automatically, such as a terminal emulator and display manager (gdm/sddm) and enable required services for stuff like polkit and dbus. If you don't pick a profile you often have to get those and configure them manually. -Telling people not to worry about Optional Repositories in the installer is also a bad idea since you absolutely need to enable multilib for any kind of gaming, it takes 1 second to enable in here, this just adds more fucking around with config files for no reason

[@agoniavr]

May I ask you what multilib is? Anyway I second your gripes. I'm not 100% new to Linux and I only tried installing Arch with archinstall a couple times, so I watched this hoping to see some things I didn't know get explained... ...yet I feel he overcomplicated the process a bit. The two times I did try archinstall in a VM I installed GNOME immediately and when I reboot my computer I already saw the login window to boot into my desktop. What's the point of not installing it to then do it in chroot? It's a genuine question, since as I said I'm new to Arch and archinstall. Is there any benefit or it makes more sense to just install the DE from archinstall and be done with it? Any other steps that could be done better?

[@_boux]

@@agoniavr multilib is the repo for 32-bit packages, like the 32-bit versions of your graphics libraries, which is 100% necessary for a lot of steam games. And yeah, you don't need to chroot into your install to setup a display manager, just use the archinstall desktop profiles with a display manager selected. If you want to setup your display manager on your own, just setup everything on your own and choose the "minimal" profile instead of a desktop profile. But as usual, using Arch as your first distro is not really recommended, as Arch is not optimized for the desktop by default, since it comes with whatever defaults its packages use. You will not have the best gaming performance out of the box. I remember I had a ton of issues with elden ring having terrible performance until I used the amd_pstate=passive kernel parameter to change my CPU frequency scaling driver, and then used the cpupower utility to manually set the freqency range I want and other settings. My fps went from an average of 45 to around 80. There's also general stability things like messing with the vm.swappiness values with sysctl. A lot of packages are also simply not configured for you by default on Arch, you literally always just get the factory defaults. For example, installing smb or ssh will not simply work, you have to configure the daemons yourself and then start them. The wiki is pretty good for that, but it's still a lot more work then simply installing the pre-configured package on something like Linux Mint. That's just how Arch works tho, the whole "just give me the thing and I'll do the rest myself" is really nice when your entire system is customized to your liking, because you don't have to rip out whatever config your distro is shipping to then configure your stuff as you like, since your distro doesn't configure anything for you.

[@agoniavr]

@@_boux thanks for the insightful reply! Looks like I'll just install it on the computer I use to fiddle around but not the one I also use for gaming. I wanted to ditch Windows on that machine and thought about finally trying arch on a real machine for a change but all this stuff looks like too much for a PC I only need to boot and game on.

One thing he forgot to mention at the start is that you need to be connected to the internet. If you're using WiFi, use iwctl to connect. If you're using LAN, then you don't need to configure anything

[@Viken43]

If you use ArchBang you can still install Archlinux no network connection is required.

I was on lan on an old laptop and it didn't connect.

This was a fantastic video and I appreciate your very thorough walk-through! Because of it, I have been able to download and install Arch Linux for the first time and as being a "noob", am interested in seeing more episodes where we can move forward with this. Thanks!

[@gajeet6745]

Honestly, I have been using Linux for quite few years, and I have always used a distro based on Arch and right now as I want to install titling window managers, I only need the things which are required which is a display manager and the compositor like Hyprland etc. watching your videos I learnt a lot. Keep such videos coming love your work and effort explaining the booting process.

[@brunofilipe9623]

I've been dailing arch for some time now. Personally I knew about the existence of the archinstall script but chose to avoid it because I figured I would learn more about the whole linux inner workings that way. It was the biggest reason I switched for the ubuntu I was rocking before. It is in fact a lot more advanced and you do learn a lot more doing it that way. At the same time I can't lie that this process is a LOT easier. Either way, great video, I still managed to learn some things. Your neovim playlist a while back made me jump over and I cannot tell you how glad I am that I did so. Keep up the amazing work boss :)

Ok.. you convinced me. I used to run on Ubuntu years ago. I've been on macOS the last 15 years or so. I started using nvim about two months ago over vscode and moved back to Ubuntu full time last week. I have a new machine coming in tomorrow and I'm going to try Arch on it instead. Wish me luck!

[@rnurick]

I want to thank you for this very informative video. It helped me in finally being able to install Arch Linux, and although I made several mistakes along the way, I stayed the course, and after finding your video, it made it that much more easy to finally reboot into that wonderful GUI with my name waiting for me to sign in with my password! My journey with Linux started about six months ago, and my first distribution was with Linux Mint, which I absolutely grew to love. Because I was curious about other distributions, I decided on installing EndeavorOS, and used that OS, but didn't stay long with it before I decided to try to tackle Arch Linux. So for about a week, I continued to read and when I decided to go for it and learn how to install Arch Linux. After all of the reading, and making the effort to learn how, It was so satisfying to finally reboot into the GUI, and I'm enjoying setting up my new distribution. And now, I too can say, I too use Arch, BTW!

[@mysterfr]

Hi, watched this video when it was released, loved it, and 3 months later I decided to re-install my Mint desktop computer under Arch (upgrading my SSD at the same time). I won't say it was a nightmare, but I must admit I struggled quite a bit with the custom partitioning I wanted (never been a fan of a giant root partition). I took me nearly 3 hours until I successfully booted into my fresh install. One thing to be noted : in the archinstall script, you can use the "Profile" menu to directly tell which kind of system you're deploying (Desktop, Server, etc), and pick the desktop environment(s) you want to install, and which GPU driver to install as well (NVIDIA-open in my case). This avoids you the hassle of the last part of the video, and on first boot you can immediately log into one of the desktop environments you enabled in the install script ! Also, if you prefer custom partitioning, it's easier to do it with cfdisk once you booted on the ISO, prior to launching the archinstall script.

[@noormohammedshikalgar]

Due to your channel and the way to explains stuff -> i am just loving the linux env now. Good work -> keep it up

[@zenogoerbe]

Hi. So I am quite obsessed with your tutorials now. Been dabbling in the last years with Linux, trying to make the big step in ditching Windows so I tested out a lot of Distros but nothing really "zinged" so I was almost at the point where I was ready to give up and accept the eternal Windows "curse". That until I found your youtube videos by mistake. Now I am using Arch (by the way) and this only thanks to you. I also love your other courses. Now I am setting up NeoVim (I am a daily JetBrains IDE but it's time to try something new, more challenging to learn and to change and optimize my workflow. I feel that NeoVim is the next step). PS: Was a Monokai Colour Theme user, now the Catppuccin Color Theme just looks amazing). Keep up the good work.

[@hahahahahahahayeah]

Hey man, keep it up. These guides are super clear, and I am finally making my transition to Linux cause of you. I've tinkered with Mint on other computers, but it's time to really understand how Linux works and make the full switch

[@oraziosciuto77]

Bello questo video, semplice conciso ed esaustivo.

[@iBolski]

Great video. I just discovered your channel because I wanted to learn more about vanilla Arch Linux as opposed to distros based off of it that provide a GUI-type install. I wanted to be able to control what was installed and build up from that. I've been using Linux since early 1990 starting with the SLS/Slackware releases which were imaged to 15+ floppies after I FTP'd them using my college's internet on a Unix server, uudecoded into binary floppy images, and then downloaded to a PC via FTP. This was in the days when I was still running DOS and Windows 3.1. Seeing Linux evolve like it has over the years has been amazing. All the new "easy to install" distros are great to ease a beginner/non-techie into the world of Linux. When I discovered Arch Linux, it was a breath of fresh air and a throw-back to the old days of Linux, but better. Yeah, it can be daunting if you don't know what you're doing, but there are plenty of great instructions out there, including this video. And with virtual machines, it's so much easier now to experiment first without having to worry about possibly destroying your current install of an OS if you wish to dual boot.

[@SimilakChild]

despite what some people say, archinstall does work properly but I do recommend you manually create your partition layout with cfdisk first before using archinstall. after that it all comes down to preferences, I don't like gnome. I installed hyprland for wayland, and xfce for x11 (you will need a desktop environment for both due to compatibility).

[@ahmedkhedr776]

for me this is the best and easiest youtube channel for linux

[@andrewdonohue1853]

fedora was so incredibly easy and it was a great transition from windows. i still have ALLOT to learn, but it got me up and continuing my PC usage with very little interruption. sometimes i have to remind myself that im no longer running windows. arch looks like it's something completely different. im using KDE desktop. that being said i am subscribing because i think you have a great wealth of information to offer any linux user.

Seems like a good place to ask. Got Arch Installed (for the first time correctly btw) following this video inside of virtual box, so thank you good sir for that. One issue I've always ran into though and I think its 50/50 on half me not knowing and half virtual box. And that's get my resolution supported. 3440x1440. Obviously I assume i need to get the nvidia drivers up and running but then I've seen some stuff about needing to load virtual boxes drivers to make things work. Also the mouse is VERY choppy and seems to lag? It's not hardware by any means but that could also be video related Ideally I want to run to desktops on my work pc, one with my work stuff and a 2nd full screen one with arch THE DREAM! lol

So I've attempted to install using this install method 7 or 8 times. The very first time it worked and I neofetched at the end. That was super cool. Unfortunately every attempt after the first selecting my mirror region it automatically began searching Canada 🇨🇦 for the fastest mirrors...ok. problem is I kept getting errors connected to my mirrors? After many more very careful attempts I tried mirroring from the USA. That completely failed. Hopefully the archistall method won't keep failing. I did get a fully working desktop but being unable to neofetch and getting errors when I tried I've given up for now.

Cool guide! One small thing tho, you seem to have overlooked disk encryption function in this guide. I'm sure this video mostly focus on basic installation, but since re-encrypt a disk/partition after an installation is quite complicated, and because disk encryption is an extremely important security function (especially for laptop users), imo introducing it as early as possible would be better for new users.

[@bagfleet]

Fantastic guide! Looking forward to the next episode!

[@LinuxEssentials79]

I believe that you didn't use the profile option from the "archinstall" script on purpose to show how the Desktop Environment as well as the Windows Manager and Display Manager are connected and enabled in the kernel. Also we could install both "linux" and "linux-lts" kernels, so as to have something to boot, in case one kernel doesn't boot. By the way, very good job, but it will be nice to see an full custom installation too. For example, using custom partitioning and LVM in order to have the ability to extend the hard disk drive. 😉

Just installed arch using this guide. I did manage to wipe away my windows partition in the meantime 😬. Thankfully an old laptop, and I wasn't using Windows a lot on it anyways. Be careful during disk setup! Choosing a disk is not the same as choosing a partition!

[@Satscape]

Just one vital thing: If you try this on a real PC, it doesn't work without WIFI, so you have to somehow install the WIFI driver and setup credentials right there in the terminal..😯 or plug in a LAN cable. How about a tutorial on how easy it is to setup WIFI on Arch 😁 I did try iwctl but its not detecting my WIFI dongle, so needs the driver.

[@Mike-Denver]

Forgot to mention one small details - you can launch archinstall without internet. Good luck and connecting your laptop to wlan in terminal without knowing how to do it.

[@ReptilianLaserbeam]

I just installed Arch yesterday and your video was of great help. One thing that might be of use: I installed it on a corporate Thinkpad Laptop, and even though I choose an UEFI capable boot loader, Arch didn't boot after the first reboot. I needed to go to the BIOS settings and change the "sleep" option from Windows to Linux, also, disable safe boot. Just to test I didn't go with GNOME but with KDE and it was fairly easy following the arch documentation. If possible please make a video about the packet managers alternative to pacman and something about AUR, I went into the KDE Software center to try it and it installs using flatpack instead of pacman, and even though it works some applications can't seem to find the /app/ folder when they are installed from different packet managers (talking from my recent experience lol). I'll try to get familiarized with the environment and maybe try a tiling window manager once I'm comfortable with using more the terminal :)

[@bakos.samson]

Me as someone who has some linux experience I would say I would not have did this with gnome. Gnome isnt the best exactly, for example KDE gives u a very windows-like experience with a normal taskbar and stuff, but way more customization you can get lost in, while gnome has you to learn entirely new muscle memory to operate it, which can be good if you prefer it but for a beginner, its not the best.
