I'm gonna install arch linux for the first time :3

Today I did a bit of handywork around the house.

It will be difficult to understand how to set up the boot partition, at least it was for me the first time. But I learned a lot during my first failed attempts... :)

Arch has an installer these days though which often works but not always.

Thanks for the warning! I hope I manage to learn as much.

Arch is fantastic, I love it. So don't give up... Keep trying until you get it right and it boots. :)
