You have to pronounce it like "Buh-twoss".

My favorite part of Arch is reinstalling it over and over again. That first successful boot after the install gives too much dopamine.

[–] oce@jlai.lu 7 points 10 months ago

My favorite part of Arch is that my install from 5 years ago still works perfectly and I didn't have to do any major version upgrade that breaks everything.

Just had to reinstall arch 3 times yesterday, since the installation script fucked up the partitioning.

Reinstall nr1(manually, since the script didn't work): I forgot to add users and couldn't log into my machine Reinstall nr2(manually): my mirror lists was so fucked up that I couldn't install or update packages(there also were some missing databases) Reinstall nr3(script) : finally everything worked.

Don’t use the script. Ezpz problem solved

[–] pete_the_cat@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

Agreed. I've been installing it manually since 2012, never had an issue I couldn't quickly fix. I attempted to use the installer about 6 months ago and couldn't get past the disk partitioning step because it wouldn't allow me to do the things I needed to do, then I think it crashed.

What's the point of installing Arch if you don't do it manually
