  • just do it. do never fear. Everything and so much more is freely available+the linux community is amazing and helpful! VM Virtual Box, no risk involved. And here u have it: the manual to command line heaven: https://wiki.archlinux.org/ . It feels like a game where u can even choose between easy, medium and hard mode. (actual CLI games i bookmarked for later xD: https://ttygames.wordpress.com/, https://cataclysmdda.org/ ) I d'definitly recommend hard mode (artix linux, which even makes u choose init system) and treating it as a slow wip project, but even just installing ubuntu, fedora, whatever opens up worlds. Medium = archinstall (which is a cli for installing arch; "cheats" are necassary sometimes to not get frustrated, imo) I have noted 24 needed steps to get a basic system running (no gui, no wm, no desktop), starting from setting your keyboard layout, formatting and preparing a drive/parititon, basestrap/pacstrap, clock, locale, pacman, user, networkmanager, init, host and bootloader.

  • Cataclysm-DDA
