    Arch is unironically easy.

    You only need to know two commands:

    archinstall

    and

    sudo pacman -Syu

    PS: If my 60 year old mom can do it, anyone can.

      I installed Arch using archinstall and my system finished with missing KDE and important packages. I was also missing secure boot…

      Staying on Debian.

        How long ago was that? I have installed Arch with archinstall on ~10 different PCs over the last 4 years without any issues. Maybe I just got lucky, though.

      Wasn’t able to have luks and lvm installed with arch-install. Maybe it’s changed now, but also without the script it’s very easy to do.
