Arch Linux Installation Guide 2024: An Easy to Follow Tutorial

Arch Linux is one of the best rolling-release distributions around, but sometimes it can be a challenge to install. In this video, Jay will walk you through not one but TWO methods of installing Arch Linux. The first method will feature arch-install, which is geared more toward beginners. During the second half of the video, Jay will walk you through the manual method - which is perfect for control freaks (you know who you are).
