“from scratch”
It’s like a page worth of instructions you can follow verbatim excluding bootloader and network. If you watch one video of someone doing it to fill those gaps there is nothing to it.
Source: I watched Kai Hendry speed install arch, bookmarked the video and all my machines are now arch “from scratch” in 10 minutes or less of actual keyboard time.
Mental Outlaw also has the great guide explaining the install step-by-step in a great detail
except he doesn’t talk about the difference in bootloader installation for uefi
Trve Arch users don’t remember their install process.
Can confirm. Install once and it lives forever until the hardware dies or is replaced.
All I remember is that I still haven’t memorised the add user command
curl cheat.sh/useradd
What?
This will be useful the next time I’ll have to install arch

I love arch but I actually haven’t used it since before they added the arch install. I can’t imagine how much easier it is cause it’s still the terminal. The “manual” install was easy as hell
It’s much easier. Just make some choices and it installs. Honestly can’t call it the terminal if it lets me choose options with arrow keys.
The first time I installed Arch there was the old archinstall that was subsequently retired. Is the new script working?
Sorry
Yo Arch users. Try daily driving Linux From Scratch. I dare ya. Let’s see what you’re really made of.
Shout out to Julia from Drawfee on youtube for the bottom art. It’s Bobby.
Endeavour Os was the best thing I ever used. Easy to install, out of box is minimal but sufficient. I traded my Linux Mint to be able to customize my workflow, look and feel.
Is that Bobby Hill?!
