re: how to install archlinux from scratch article #27

Closed bitflame closed 1 year ago

Hi I want to thank you for the article on freecode camp, and I do have a couple of questions please. 1- You said once you log in to your account issue commands. I am assuming you meant once I boot into the live usb? and 2- If I am doing this from a location that needs me to accept the wifi policy by clicking on a button of a web page, can I still follow your instructions? lastly I want to say I appologize if I am in the wrong place. I followed the link that was provided on the article.

Can’t remember point 1 to be honest, but about point 2 … I never installed any Linux at the airport, but I guess graphic installers would handle that … although these days there’s an official archinstall command that would provide almost everything I’ve mentioned in those days, and hopefully handles those cases too … have you tried it? Otherwise I’m afraid I don’t have a solution here, neither ever facing that use case

Hi Thank you so much. I'll give it a shot in a few minutes. I have not tried it yet.

I downloaded, and created the usb, and am about to test it. I wanted to share some suggestions in case they are helpful. The wiki content is great. Some details that could be useful for me are: Name torrent clients we can use on Linux and Windows sq command does not work on Fedora 36. I did check Fedora magazine for both of these to find the same or similar tool but could not find any. I am so appreciative to folks like yourself who spend their time putting together the content. I hope that these suggestions will help more people get started with this distro. It has been my experience that I have to use Fedora specific content to get things done on it, and most of the time I can not use vanilla Linux commands. But Fedora magazine and the askfedora just rocks, and I've been able to get done what I want with the content they have and understand what I am doing.

Mate, I use archibold for myself and I’m happy to share its installer but it’s definitely not a mainstream installer or config, just my ArchLinux and GNOME flavor with 100% encryption. Transmission is the torrent client of my choice, every other software can be searched through GNOME or pamac

Thank you so much. I think I should just keep trying and learn.
