Arch Linux turns 20: Small, simple, great documentation

You can install Debian the same way you installed Arch (manual, CLI) via debootstrap. I built a tool that does this, you can look through it and see how I do it--it's just bash. Download a Debian live ISO (or use my tool to create an Arch-like minimal live USB) and you can install it however you want.

Can I **completely** automate the provisioning of Debian servers/laptops?

I built a tool to do this that you may find useful: https://github.com/candiddev/forge.git. It is an opinionated bash script to setup an absolutely bare minimum debian instance.

Why you shouldn't use Manjaro. If you want an Arch based distro, go EndeavourOS, as it Arch with an installer.
