hijacking to ask what the most streamlined way to install Arch is at the moment. I've installed Arch at least 20 times in the last five years and I can't be bothered to do so for my tower but I still want to run it.
Arch has a GUI installer now, so probably that
or archinstall if you prefer to do it through CLI
I'm surprised this is the first I'm hearing this. Can you give a link?
For GUI I was refering to ALG but it looks like they discontinued it last year :/
archinstall is still alive and kicking though and it greatly improves the installation process imo
For some reason, I've always had issues with NVME drives on archinstall, but yeah archinstall is generally solid
I had no idea there was a GUI installer officially, makes things a whole lot more streamlined. Sorry about my ignorance, it's been a while since I had to reainstall.
Sorry, I commited a minor case of disinformation, arch never had an official GUI installer, see my other comment
I see! I figured I'd missed something massive lol. I appreciate you pointing me in the right direction nonetheless, I'll definitely use archinstall when I actually get around to reinstalling.
