Re: Arch Linux USB stick won't boot

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



I may be switching over to Arch Linux from Trisquel Mini 8.0 

Everything was going well with Trisquel Mini until it froze on
configuring the avahi-daemon while doing System Updates. 

Did it twice so I'm about to wipe and start over.  I can't  have this
happening. 

I think Arch is slightly less resource-intensive so it may be better
anyway. 

I only have 1GB RAM in this thing. Intel loaded it to the breaking point
with Ubuntu 14.04 LTS 64-bit...the 3 years of updates it had to catch up
alone killed any use of it.

I just installed Arch on a HP Probook laptop. I used Etcher using
Manjaro. Works great.
