Going Arch ! Need Help

[MetalheadGautham]

Don't install through Chakra. Its still alpha/beta software. Besides, its fun of installing is maximum when you install through the official commandline live CD.

I installed Arch on /dev/sda3 but didn't installed the bootloader from arch installer
Added following entry in existing grub

But when I boot using that, it says it can't load root device. What is wrong with installation?

obviously how will it load root device...??

Try this

kernel /boot/vmlinuz26 root=/dev/disk/by-uuid/[B]**here you put your sda3 UUID*** [/B]ro

Mean while other new Archers

Install Via Arch Linux live CD. Its neat and good.
Not much DIY here actually, hwdetect does most of the things for you, to be true.

Go for Vanilla KDE. Its neat. I don't like Chakra, don't know why. Should check it out one more.

Try this then...

title Arch
kernel        (hd0,2)         /boot/vmlinuz         root=/dev/sda2
initrd        (hd0,2)          /boot/initrd
