ArchBang Bootcamp Part 2: Installing Arch Bang

ArchBang Linux is a lightweight distribution based on Arch Linux. Using the Openbox window manager, it is fast, up-to-date and suitable for both desktop and portable systems. In this series I will show you how to install and convert this into a full Arch Linux system.

I will not be adding links to the shownotes in this series as everything you will need to know is answered in the Arch WIKI. If you wish to commit to Arch you MUST make good use of the documentation.

I followed your advice and installed Pinguy OS on my laptop and everything works great. But to satisfy my curiosity I've installed Arch on my netbook and it's amazing! It's a little tricky to set for me because I haven't much experience using terminal but the documentation makes it a ton easier than I expected. Thus said I couldn't set Openbox correctly so I'm using LXDE, but my Asus Aspire One is running as never before!

Keep with your videos! They're great!

Saludos ; )

@ElMapachePirata Thanks for your support and your kind words! The nice thing is that Arch gives you abase that you can build upon. LXDE is a great choice for a netbook! I am glad to know you were able to figure that out!

@ipodpunker I composed the music with "Band in a box".

@ipodpunker I doubt it... The only thing arch that is NOT bleeding edge is GRUB.
