From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Damn I've done this stuff. Even installed Gentoo on Raspberry Pi 400 for no reason. Maybe I'm not taking the right meds?
I've installed Antix on a R51. I'm kinda quirky like that.
Let's say I have an old ThinkPad..
Where does one start when trying Arch?
I used some Linux distros before and tinkered a little bit but I'm not too deep into Arch atm (but eager to get into it).
I just followed the comfy arch install guide with some additions from the comments section on YouTube, and I had a working machine quickly.
