> It really does take time if you want to understand Arch deeply. I'm don't get what you mean. I've been using Arch for 4 years or so and I don't think I know much more about the system internals than I did 3 years ago, because there aren't many. The system config is stored rc.conf, the package manager is configured in pacman.conf. That is Arch Linux. You open these with vim, read the comment, edit, save, that is it. If you break something, tough luck. Other distros will half-assedly babysit you through the system config and leave you confused. That is the main difference I think.
