Not the one you're replying to, but started my Linux experience with Ubuntu 6.10, was using it all the way up to ~17, and started using Arch Linux after that since during my time of using Ubuntu, I learnt enough Linux that I could setup my own system (and of course, with the help of the awesome Arch Wiki).

You answer a few questions, wait a few minutes, and it's done. https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Archinstall https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Archinstall
- capableweb 4y agoWow, that's great, haven't seen that before! Granted, it was some time ago I did a setup from scratch. Seems that installer is like 90% on the way to be useful as a general installer. At a glance, seems to missing things like networking setup (as most people use WiFi these days, it seems), but at least it takes care of most things you need for a install.
