Arch is my ideal distro, but since my motherboards started using UEFI I just haven't been able to install it. I followed the instructions from the Install Wiki[0], but just couldn't figure it out. Manjaro's been a nice in-between with a painless installation process [0] https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Installation_guide https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Installation_guide

You can't disable UEFI in your BIOS settings? That's what I do.

  That may be a good idea, but I honestly haven't looked into it. My preference is for operating systems to just work, rather than me change all my motherboards to accommodate them

    Arch does "just work" it's more of an issue with booting from a live image you are encountering by the sounds of things. Ironically your preferred OS is derivative of Arch and considered less stable by many users of both systems.

Arch has an installer these days. It's great and should take care of you!

  Thanks, I hadn't checked in quite a while!
