I struggled quite a bit with Arch. I found the documentation quite confusing and it seemed incomplete, and getting support was quite difficult. Manjaro provided a very easy way to try Arch. If the process to install Arch had been easier, I wouldn't have bothered even looking for any derivatives of it.
- yw3410 4y agoArch's documentation is incomplete? Arch has to have the most comprehensive documentation of all the distros. Even when I'm troubleshooting other distros I'll check the Arch wiki first!
- kingrazor 4y agoPurely in regards to the initial install of the OS. I wound up having to go outside the Arch install wiki to other sources to figure out what to do. It seemed written for someone who already had a pretty thorough understanding of setting up partitions and file systems.
- fomine3 4y agoIt looks valid precondition for target user.
- jcpst 4y agoI’m having trouble relating to this post. General linux questions on a search engine end up on the Arch Linux wiki quite often. Really though, what Linux distro has better documentation than Arch?
- egberts1 4y agoGentoo Linux? I still think their https://wiki.gentoo.org https://wiki.gentoo.org is still the best.
- kingrazor 4y agoTheir initial installation and setup documentation was what I found difficult. Having very little experience setting up boot partitions and file systems at the time, the instructions were quite vague. I wound up having to go outside the Arch install wiki in order to figure out what to do.
