thanks for this calm install guide, usually when installing arch using other guides i get very angry and break my thinkpad and start eating the internal components, it usually takes like 50 minutes to calm down after that and by then i've ruined 8 friendships and got a divorce. I really appreciate it.

Summary
*PERFECT ARCH INSTALL GUIDE*

[romanykemp]

I thought the Archlinux install wiki was a bit complicated - and I followed couple of other youtube vids - and had lots of issues. I find THIS guy - followed him exactly as HE followed the wiki and everything worked!. I can't believe he's only has 7K subscribers - he is a fantastic teacher. If I can find some way to buy him a coffee I'll be happy to contribute...

I've tried to install Arch a few times over the years and always encountered issues no matter what guide I used. I find this video and it works first try. Huge ups man, we need more people like you in the community.

[Hawkolate]

This is by far the best Arch tutorial ever made, currently re watching for the third time cause it's so good.

[AbhijeethPEapen]

This is one of the best, simple, informative arch install guide I ever get to see in youtube.

[JaePeaS]

You sir are a tremendous help. It only took me 5 tries until I noticed my mistake was right in front of me. This is a very accurate and comfy video, happy 420.

[ranimungcal]

I know that this vid has been 2yrs now but im still greatful that finally I successfully installed the archlinux manually for the first time because of him!thank you so much denshi for these tutorial and thanks for your generosity.

[YaroLord]

Clean, useful and straight to the point. Well done!

[Whoknowsthatman]

The explanation of all Arch install I have seen. Subscribed.

[tamerali]

Denshi your the best i swear! I tried every tutorial and they didn't work but urs did and it was excellent! Thx for it

[lightninglemma]

you do god's work man I was getting so stressed about the wiki. Thankyou SO so much! 😭😭❤️

[savag]

You forgot one thing. Before generating the grub file, you should install the microcode for your CPU. It's used to apply security and performance patches to your CPU. For amd, it's: "sudo pacman -S amd-ucode" and for intel it's: "sudo pacman -S intel-ucode". Nevertheless, great video!

[sunbreeze]

Thank you dude! I cannot believe how surprised I was when everything worked without any error!
Following you, you make great stuff!

[bluebodycamera]

quick, easy, and super comfy guide! 10/10!

[JustinSimmons-fhdh]

I don't think I've ever commented on a youtube video before but I can't thank you enough for this guide. Have tried so many times to install Arch over my very short Linux journey and this was incredible and I got it first try. Thanks again.

[h.hristov]

Can you make a video on how to manage Arch over time? Like if log files, cache, clunk starts to build up? Also any important post-install tweaks

[yntevjj]
