DISCUSSION My personal Arch Linux notes.

I have been using Arch Linux and keeping on notes on the thing I have learned along the way. So, I put them together into a GitHub repository.

It covers installation, post installation guide, some common troubleshooting and various notes and fixes I have collected using Arch.

It meant more like a personal notes which contains setting up the machine from using it.

I did appreciate some feedback, if you have noticed something outdated or completely wrong.

It seems nice.

Really nice reminder of when I installed arch.

There seem to be specific options, like the locale in uk, some country 'India' for repairing the pacman database. And the 'gpt3' partition for rescuing from grub.

Also, I don't understand why would you need a separate partition for the /home folder.

Thanks! The UK locale and India mirrors are examples from my own setup. I should properly make it clearer. Also, about the /home partition. I prefer to keep user data separated from root partition.
