If you look closely the information is there, for example: netctl => "Configure the network for the newly installed environment: see Network configuration." => https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Network_configuration RAID setup => "If wanting to create any stacked block devices for LVM, disk encryption or RAID, do it now." => https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/RAID So it's all in there, you just have to look :-) > We should consider the beginner's guide again -- it was invaluable to new and > beginner users to help them get a feel for arch.
