Yes…it’s nice to install Arch. Gives you a little better understanding of what’s involved.

Very good, but I’m amazed that you installed XMonad. Nobody in his right mind understands Haskell!!!

I use Endeavour BTW

My latest craze: just install EndeavourOS, whichever version you like, then install any DE/WM of your choice and then rip out the original DE/WM from the install plus all it’s configs. Yeah it’s probably cheating and then you have to set up a vanilla setup by yourself, but what the heck, it’s a learning experience. The base system is still Arch with the EnOS addtions. Rock and Roll! :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

I’m almost sadistic, and Arch with a wm is not something I would consider fun. I remember the hour and a half of Arch i3 I built, and it was terrible.

Good luck, and congratulations.

You build it and it’s done, though. Just like building a PC tower
