It isn't doing anything else. There's no desktop. What the fuck is this fucking shit!? Did I just wipe all my data for this bullshit? I won't update to Win10, fuck that shiz. you linsux people are crazy in the head.
JESUS FUCKING CHRIST
Nope. No, no nonononono, FUCK NO. I ain't doing all this shit. That's retarded. Just package it all up into one install like something normal. Like WINDOWS.
haha oops
i recommend you download ubuntu non-lts instead, fresh packages with zero hassle
ubuntu.com
Hi retard
Run these commands
sudo apt-get install xorg
sudo apt-get install dwm
sudo apt-get install xterm
then run command
sudo xinit dwm
>look at how retarded I am!
great thread fren
It's just setting up partitions and installing whatever DE you prefer. Even a dumb windows faggot like me could figure it out, jesus christ.
i think you fucked up there somewhere
>arch
>apt-get
>apt-get anywhere in 2019
it does make for a great bait thread doesn't it?
>command not found

You've never used this before have you?
WE TOLD YOU TO INSTALL GENTOO BUT YOU DIDN'T LISTEN
Why didn’t you install Ubuntu?
imagine installing arch linux not knowing what you're getting yourself into.
please do the needful sir.
cfdisk -z /dev/sda
#format HDD
mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda1
mount /dev/sda1 /mnt
pacstrap /mnt base base-devel grub
genfstab -p /mnt >> /mnt/etc/fstab
arch-chroot /mnt
grub-install /dev/sda
grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
systemctl enable dhcpcd
exit
umount -R /mnt
reboot
Done.
GET APT GEETTET APPPTT GET REBOOT BOOT BEEP BOP BOOP BEEP BOP
look mom I can talk robot.
GAAAAAAAY
- Linux
Lmao just install manjaro
Alright stupid find a computer you didn't fuck up download Ubuntu write the iso the same exact way you did arch and then boot that then slap whoever recommended a total Linux noob start with arch cause I would love to
you have to be 18+ years old to post here.
nice screenshots of your VM
shit bait thread.
OP here.
This sucks. WTF is wrong with the people who make this shit?
those letters look atrocious, is that xp?
i told you to install xubuntu
(btw i use arch)
oh no guys what did i do/where did i screw up oh god help me help me
Yes, but it is on a shitty Toshiba monitor that borks all fonts to hell and weird settings need to be used to unbork it. It probably looks like 2x shit on a normal monitor in screenshots like that. I can barely read console shit.
I already have ubuntuGNOME. I don't need another bun.
The Apple Macbook Pro with Retina Display doesn't have this problem.
>a thread died for this low-tier LARP bait
sage
Don't tell me you literally downloaded Arch Linux without even reading the wiki pages and the installation instructions.
no that's just how fonts on windows [xp] are
>ubuntuGNOME
i said Xubuntu
>plottwist
>he's installing in a vm
Install LARBS.
arch is trash use debian buster or sid
>read the instructions
I'm doing this like a man, god damn it!
I've been documenting what I'm using and I'm this far waiting for shit to install. I was going to use code to show what i'm doing in the post but, "Error: Our system thinks your post is spam. Please reformat and try again." so fuck it.
I remember when Arch had an installation script.
kys disgusting pedo
I'm actually setting this up so I can use a VM inside it and install Tiny7 and Win10AME.
you're probably a pedo if you look at a tummy being tickled and think it's somehow pedo
>debian is so bad it makes you kys
no thx
No that user, but it is a well known fact that anime is for pedos. It has to do with being attracted to neoteny. If you are a child you merely related to it, but if you are an adult it is a whole other can of worms.
What really boggles my mind is that it is 2019 and there's still shit like this. Hell, even MS-DOS is easier to setup.
it took me like an hour or less on my first try, it was fun. i already know linux though. where's your spirit of adventure?
1st command line linux.
>still waiting for this shit to finish installing
If installing a new operating system means losing all your data to you then you don't belong here.
>:(
WTF IS THIS SHIT?
Then don't get arch.
get ubuntu.
Don't get ubuntu
get Slackware
Fuck it. I'm going back to ubuntuGNOME.
OH MY FUCKING GOD WHAT THE FLYING FUCK IS WRONGWITH TODAY?
Wait, nvm capslock was on.
fucking normies can't do shit without a GUI
Shit yes. Now we are talking!
>installing ArchLinux
>it's a screenshot
bait
There are some architect based installers...
Sir, you seem to have dropped this.
Way to ruin the bait.
Posting in a MEGA EPIC thread :-)
You sir, OP, are an master baiter B-)
Not quite at the level I am, but good none the less :^)
I just installed Arch on my shitty samsung laptop today OP, try harder next time.
Wow, thanks! I haven't had such a good compliment before. May I screencap it?
Why yes, go ahead! :-D
>apt-get
not to mention that dwm is in the aur.
And you are not supposed to install it, without modifying it anyway.
Thanks friend, you're a real pal! :D
>And you are not supposed to install it, without modifying it anyway.
Who makes weird shit like that? That's like ordering pepperoni pizza and having it come with the cheese on the bottom and you need to rearrange it yourself.
just Manjaro then, you retard.
I love how there's like 30 recommendations ITT for oddly named shit.
>you should have installed OPENazz_GNU/Linux faggot
install devuan ascii and quit pissing and moaning
Why is your font looks so bad?
Install Hyperbola GNU/Linux-libre.
hyperbola.info
install desktop envirioment you fucking dunk
Probably because it is default classic theme Win7. Screenshot and post your font from here, please.
sudo apt-get install gentoo
I'm not sure which is worse, arch or gen. Trisquel is far better than either though so there's that I guess.
Here
>Trisquel
stallmen beardneck master race overlord flavor distro nice choice
I see the difference. Yours is a bit thicker and has fuzziness to it. Mine is stripped down to be pixel perfect with no fading sides. The screen I'm using makes mine look fuzzier though.
> literally OP
Buy a mac if you're too retarded to learn how things work.
Clearly bait
doubt
You should only install Arch if you understand what it tries to accomplish, have a basic understanding of the cli, read the documentation and most importantly if you like the idea of Arch.
You should just choose a distro that fits your needs, don't listen to the people on Jow Forums telling you otherwise. Considering you seem to be new to Linux you might want to pick a decent, well supported distro that works out of the box. I think Ubuntu might be a nice distro to install for you. Just don't listen to the people that tell you Ubuntu is for plebs, it's fine for what it does.

>I think Ubuntu might be a nice distro to install for you. Just don't listen to the people that tell you Ubuntu is for plebs, it's fine for what it does.
It tries to be a linux for plebs.
that's the entire fucking appeal
deb is so much better then buntu. i fucking love deb. i might even try devuan some day once they get themselves unhacked by the mysytious hacker named Jow Forums
debian net iso doesnt have this problem
And you're the reason I said to not listen to Jow Forums. Debian is a good distro and I use it a lot. However, it's not the best choice for every usecase and you seem to have missed my point.
OP seems to be a newbie so a distro aimed at plebs is fine. Don't forget that Ubuntu works for both plebs and powerusers. Yes you need a certain level of skill to use some distros, but you don't outgrow the capabilities of a distro. If you get good at using Linux you might use some other distros for different usecases or because a distro fits your preference better.
I could create my own distro with LFS right now but I have no reason to since there are dozens of distros that can achieve everything I'd want right now. Even Ubuntu can, I just prefer Arch.
Holy shit, could they have made it larger perhaps?
Net iso
netinst CD image (generally 150-300 MB, varies by architecture)
debian.org
Is that the one that requires a net connection to download whatever?
not really. But you will end up with a bare system. To get wifi drivers you do need an ethernet connection
This. Someone this stupid wouldn't know how to screenshot a framebuffer and upload it.
Not even that, you can see a window border on the left side. It's a VM. Probably in virtualbox on windows
Suckmore thinks that conf files are bloat.
It's software for autists, user, it doesn't have to make any sense.
