Arre,you don't know how much I have struggled installing video drivers on ubuntu.I don't give up easily

Then definitely don't install Arch. If you call installing video drivers on ubuntu "struggling", I wonder what you will do with arch :lol:

Take my advice and install Sidux. Its a good second step from ubuntu. Then after you become well versed with commandline, install Arch. Till then, either stay away from arch or learn some BASHING.

At that time my 8800 GTS was not compatible with ubuntu.I had to edit xorg.conf with nano editor.Get it?

Just tell me what to do with WiFi??I have netgear WiFi USB dongle WG111 for my PC.

Oh me idiot!!!I can pick up the AP and plug it into my PC through ethernet wire.Later I can configure WiFi

Editing with nano is not something great. But knowing what do do in the commandline environment, and a basic knowledge of tools like less, dir, nano, pacman, etc is something thats essential.

So read the user guide, by pressing alt+f2 and logging in as arch and do a less /arch/arch-install-guide.txt and then read away with page up, page down, up and down. Do this before, after and WHILE installing.

Mistake #2: This is arch, not Sabayon or SuSE. You need to be online on IRC using irssi commandline chat client, not on gmail

Why not?

giving mkswap error after setting filesystem.CR@P.But good news,my USB dongle is supported

Whay dont use Gparted Live Cd to do your pre-partitions stuff and then just select the partitions as swap and root when asked in mount points?

Are you installing Arch? If you are I will gladly help you if you post questions here and if I know the answers. However I don't know about the wifi setup. The one who does know about that is Amitava he has a wifi setup to get on the net so you might want to check with him.

What about mkswap error?

@Filled-Void,of course I'm installing arch!

BY any chance do you have multiple swap partitions?

Code:

Naturally you won't be able to use the Auto-Prepare feature if you want to create and use multiple swap partitions. Create the partitions manually instead, and create as many swap partitions as your little heart desires. Go through the rest of the disk preparation steps, don't mind that you're only asked for one swap partition during the mount-point setting. Once you're through with the install and are about to edit your system configuration files, you can edit the fstab file and include a line for every swap device you created earlier. Simply copy the automatically generated swap line, and modify the referenced device according to your setup. The additional swaps will be activated after the bootup when swapon -a is being run by the initscripts. Make sure you ran mkswap on all of your swap partitions manually, or else your system will complain on bootup!

If, for any odd reason, you can not wait until after the installation with activating multiple swap partitions or files, you will have to open a shell on one of the virtual terminals and issue the swapon <device> for every swap drive or file you partitioned/readied before with mkswap. Then continue as explained above with the install.

In case you are honestly contemplating setting up multiple swap files or drives, you should keep in mind that a kernel that needs to swap is actually crying bitterly for more RAM, not more swap space. Please keep your penguin well fed. Thank you.

You might have partitioned the hard disk wrong so you might want to check that.

plz come online on yahoo

@filledvoid can ou please tell me how to know the commands in the terminal and how to get the knowledge to edit the xconf.org file as everyone does?

FilledVoid · Dec 9, 2008

Although I think a new thread would have helped you more , here is a resource about Xorg.conf.

*www.x.org/archive/X11R6.8.0/doc/xorg.conf.5.html

I had another guide but cant find it atm, but I think you can find it here if you search a bit for it.

vamsi360 · Dec 13, 2008

thankyou filledvoid.

Another thing....installing arch is made simple by softpedia. It will make it simple but you dont enjoy your frustration installing arch.
I too have spent 5 hours to install window managers,X.....but the wiki is really good.All the time is spent to read it carefully.First I was shocked not to see the GUI in linux, misleaded it is a server but after refering to Distrowatch learnt that it is SIMPLE Linux. Is it really simple

Anyway EASIEST Arch :::
