nah I'm good with NixOS
I build my desktop setup from Debian base so I can be more offbeat than the arch crowd.
I feel like Debian people are the ones who wear fedoras, and the ones who use Fedora wear golf attire.
Then you got Arch people like me (black jeans and hoody) who need to ham it into every conversation that I use Arch.
I installed endeavor. Now I want to try arch with the arch install script. Then I want to try the traditional install.
archinstall is so easy I'm convinced almost anybody can do it.
Same. I installed Arch the manual way a few times, then tried archinstall. It’s dead easy
Last time I tried (a few months ago), it only is easy for single-boot setups. If you want to dual boot, you have to define the BTRFS submodules yourself, manually... why?? Just give me sane defaults, please.
Do it the traditional way! Its good to learn that stuff and feel comfortable tinkering around your system when need be... Especially when dealing with partitioning and setting up your bootloader.
I use Manjaro, is that cool?
You are on this council... But we do not grant you the rank of master
I just used the Arch Install script last time, does that make me a bad person?
Don't tell anyone but I only did it manually the first time and have just used archinstall every other time since 😎
I always used an archiso from 2021 and wondered why the script never works. Last time it tried it with a new ISO again, damn was it fast and simpel. I needed to install Arch many times because of new PCs we used as Server
Thank you, that is acceptable.
il stick to my plans of installing Linux mint cinnamon on laptop and rocky Linux on a tablet
I like my computer like I like my hair....with Fedora
Behind a paywall?
