  • This is my first video since long time. I am going to take some time here and a create the foundation of Arch Linux by doing a base install. There are a lot of info here about utilities used and they should provide you with a deeper understanding on to manage your system. This is the base on top of which you'll be able to complete the system with a DE or a WM. The next video with Sway is going to build on top of this one.

    Ermanno, this is such a great tutorial for a base install. Thank you so much for your time putting this together. It is 8 months old now and I see the channel appears to have stop publishing. The next one in this series is greatly missed. I hope you are ok and just busy with life and will be in a position to continue creating your excellent content in the near future.

    one of the things i love to do these days, is watching arch installs. The base install is almost identical, with some small details everyone does differently. However i like to see what packages people consider required nowadays. i learned a lot from this channel, can't thank you enough. I hope you are well my friend, and i'll be here (i hope) to watch your next arch install :)

    Thank you very much, Ermanno! I've been using your videos to learn the basics of an Arch linux installation since your persistent USB stick videos! Seeing you come back just in time for my first dual boot was amazing and I look forward to the next installation of this updated series. You teach me about Arch better than everyone else I've looked towards, and for the many arch installations I've done so far, they were all made easier to understand and execute because of you. Glad to see you're back!

    Ermanno, you're an amazing teacher. This was a class taken about the system. Learned a lot through the entire process. I'm just a beginner on Arch and was trying without success installing the SO. Even used the archinstall script but was facing sound issues. Thank you so much for the detailed explanation on each step of the process. I loved it and will wait for the follow up (if it's not already on the channel - I'm about to look for it yet). Really my friend, I can't thank you enough for this lesson. Greetings from Brazil.

  • @ren137c
    @ren137c 8 місяців тому

    Thank you for going out of your way to share and teach through these videos. I have installed arch a bunch of times now through different methods and following different guides, but this is the first time I've felt like I'm actually beginning to understand things. I look forward to learning more from you in the future and plan on immediately moving on to some of your other videos to get a better idea of how do do things. I'm normally the sort of person who would rather just jump in and push through things, working stuff out myself the long way, but as there doesn't exactly seem to be an objectively "correct" way to do things, i just feel like I'm in a bit of an ocean of nonsense stumbling around. My favorite way to learn is normally just taking things apart and putting them back together, so i struggle a little bit with following forums, however, the arch wiki does seem particularly great. I'm getting the impression that i probably should have spent more time working with systems that have already been built/set up before jumping to arch, as my knowledge is somewhat limited. However, I much prefer being in the deep end surrounded by new information than slogging through stuff i already know, trying to make myself stay focused enough to pick up on anything new that i need to learn.
    This mindset of wanting to jump in deep and investigate has lead me to spending quite a bit of time now messing around with other peoples "dotfiles" and setups, starting with merging/copying everything, then instead taking piece by piece of config files and seeing how/what they change and adjusting them to suit my preferences, which has been fantastic, but i still cant really tell if the stuff I'm going through is "good code" or "good practice" or if I'm just picking up on bad habits. At least i feel like I've learned a fair bit about how plugins and config files work to the point where I'm pretty happy editing and updating stuff as i see fit. Still, it would be really great to hear some more of your thoughts on "best practices" and more about the "why" behind things, unlike most other videos i watch which just explain the "how". Trying to learn how things work without knowing why it is that they work in the way they do just feels boring and difficult to care about.

    If you ever have the time for another Arch-related adventure, give Obarun a try. You already possess some knowledge about s6 and 66-suite, so it certainly wouldn't be an unfamiliar experience to someone with your skills.

    I would like to ask you to leave 3 lines from the top and another 3 before the end of the screen, because every time I have to pause the video UA-cam overlaps a header and a footer, and often it covers part of the text you wrote there.
    And a last request for future videos: It would be possible an Arch Linux without systemd?
    That's all. Thank you very much.

    A good title for this video would be "Linux tty install for new Linux users", or maybe (wrong but clearer for them) "Linux terminal install for new Linux users." Not sure that "The Foundation" is the best for searchabaility in on UA-cam. I hope that this video will help ome some beginning Linux users to install Arch or maybe Ubuntu server or whatever and have this be the first step in learning to use the terminal and maybe more (some 'hacking', configuring a tiling window manager, some programming to get something useful done...).
