Ubuntu: Here's an easy GUI installer, it'll do everything for you Fedora: Here's a GUI installer but feel free to customize whatever you want either with installer or with terminal or something else like gparted Arch: Haha screw you and learn all my CLI tools Gentoo: *compile from source mortal*

[@elektra81516]

Also Arch: Use archinstall 🗿

[@davidwuhrer6704]

The Ubuntu graphical installer also allows you to customise whatever you want. It doesn't tell you how, but it allows it. Gentoo is easier and more straightforward to install and use than Arch. But yes, it compiles everything from source, which takes time and electricity, and, like Arch, it is rolling release, which means compile from source everyday. But the USE flag is without compare. Gentoo is great for clusters, or for building distributions from scratch; not so great for laptops.

You gotta give Ubuntu (or any other relatively easy to install distros like Fedora or openSUSE) credit; they might not be the best/fastest/smallest distros around, but you have to admit installing them is - in 90% of cases - really intuitive and leaves you with a default installation that would satisfy most "I have to work _at_ my PC, not _on_ it" users. Sure, getting the perfect install _for your specific needs_ isn't gonna be just the Ubuntu defaults, but it's still admirable to try and make it as easy as possible for the largest number of users with varying levels of skill.

Unironically I find installing Gentoo to be therapeutic. After you've done it a few times, you get familiar - nothing about it is scary and it becomes routine. So I actually find doing a Gentoo install with a new target goal (maybe another DE, maybe another init, let's try musl, etc.) to be a good way to unwind while solidifying my Linux skills and probably learning a new thing or two while I'm at it.

Installing Gentoo has gotten much easier since you don't need to configure and compile a kernel anymore (you can still do it yourself, though). If you just want a running gentoo system and follow the handbook, I guess you could be done installing the base system in about 30-45 minutes; this would leave you with a minimal installation with no desktop environment, no office suite and so on. Installing those would of course take a while, depending on your processing power and RAM.

Thank you! It's on Virbox Music channel, the track is Floater

[@Linkachus17]

yeah I remember completely broke my WiFi hardware (I think it was a switch to turn on WiFi module I guess?) when installing Arch Linux for the first time on host machine (I’ve done it on VirtualBox only)

[@bearwolffish]

1st half a second was the ubuntu install process, rest was waiting for the mouse to move.

[@tomuplayer3556]

Just made my first Arch install with kde plasma, and mac os theming

[@HermesSilva-xt6dt]

Being and arch user (Cause I use arch btw) talking about Gentoo feels like being heavy in the TF2 meet heavy video

[@sipsip2367]

installing arch can be easy too. for those new users of linux who may take this meme a bit too much literal

[@s.s.85]

Does anyone know what's the music being used as the background for Arch install? It's been stuck in my head for days...

[@Virbox]

Thank you, it's "Floater" at VirboxMusic :)

[@THEPUNISHERBRAZIL]

Why they make so hard to install?

[@Arnob-vm4ub]

What's the music during the arch linux installation?

[@Virbox]

I made, it, I will publish it on Virbox Music channel sooner or later :)

watching this while compiling my kernel

[@micmacha]

The first time I installed Ubuntu, after having messed with Susé and Mandrake in the past, it went so smoothly and quickly I called BS. Turned out I was wrong. Everything actually _was_ fine.

[@O5MO]

I installed arch on an old laptop, and when compiling even small packages it takes ages and heats up a ton, if i tried to install gentoo, it would unironically be completely fried unless i disconnect the power supply in time.

[@3y6HuK_]

I'm using Gentoo now, by the way. 😁

[@jamesyoung151]

Same. Been using it for years. I started Linux with Slackware.

you fell for the meme. 💀

God I love computers so much I wish they were harder to use

Hahaha

[@3RR0RNULL]

“Minimal” my guy that was like 20 packages you installed, minimal arch is like 6 at most.

[@lucaslzt]

I liked the Ubuntu installation music. Go Ubuntu

[@MrCmon113]

Wouldn't it be way easier to have the options on a website and modify the download of Arch, Gentoo, etc depending on those options, so that you can simply install them like Windows or Ubuntu?

[@uooooooooh]

What options? Arch comes with a decent install script, and the whole point of Gentoo is to compile everything you can for your system so even with a script you're going to spend a long time waiting for your system to cook. Neither are Windows, and neither of them are trying to be. I'd rather manually configure everything while setting up from a minimal install instead of the Windows way of proving an awful base install you need to spend hours configuring, ripping stuff out of, and running random scripts from github to TRY to customize anything anyway.

[@lucolesco]

That would be unnecessarily complicated to make and would demand a lot of work to maintain. Another thing is that Arch is rolling release, so your ISO would become outdated a couple of days later and your installation attempt would crash. I think that would be better suited to immutable distros which primarily focus on reproducibility.

[@plebisMaximus]

Just the other day I saw some "hacker" b-roll footage, which just showed someone installing vim. It's pretty epic.

[@deusdeusasmodeus]

@@plebisMaximus i saw some movie where a hacker was printing his ping to a server repeatedly 🤣🤣

When did they stop using Enlightenment? Just doing "ls --color /usr/bin" is enough for things to look like the Matrix to mere users.

Make video about installing vanilla RHEL, not a clone. 😃😃

[@Fizcakesprite]

I used Arch not even a year into linux, second time using it I did a manual install. (It's not that hard)

[@unoriginalname3442]

Its not hard if you're jobless or are just doing it for a hobby. Theres no reason to use arch over any other distro; the pacman repo isnt that useful to justify its use. There are are more functional distros that still manage to have an easier installation process than arch. There isn't an execuse anymore
