    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    Getting the damn thing to install was a total nightmare for me .

    The instructions on their site had nothing step by step, -still no idea how to work checksums- so I had to figure out how to get an ISO onto a flash drive (turns out it needs additional software), how to get it onto the hdd without bios access (thanks Windows 10), then fight through tpm errors.

    Hell, even having to torrent the file in the first place was a pain since the machine I was installing on didn't want to download the ISO.

    Took me all morning, but could've been worse in my mental fog, I guess
