    There might be some savings to be had with some sort of local package cache over 10GiB Ethernet.

      Omitting grub and using systemd-boot might also take a few seconds off.

    It’s fast, but you are only installing base, linux and grub.

    base-devel should also be there, since it’s assumed to be installed by any PKGBUILD you’d want to build with makepkg.

    But yes. It does what it said it would do: Install a basic, minimal Arch system in just over a minute.

      I disagree, making your own packages is nice, but it’s not like it’s needed. I know multiple people who don’t touch the AUR or custom pkgbuilds at all

        I know. It’s not marked in the wiki as essential and you can have a functional system without it.

    I don’t quite understand the point of these speedruns since there’s usually not a defined end target and there are so many variables which are not under the user/installer’s control, like disk, processing speed

          Doesn’t really matter as long as people watch, I guess. Or maybe it’s purposefully that way to draw engagement

      I feel like it’s mostly shitposting but soon enough there will be a more formal competition. Possibly with a standardized VM and local package cache.

      Yeah it really needs to be a target decided by someone else and not announced ahead of time.

    It takes a while but I’m surprised the WR would be nearly 72 minutes.

        It’s the way it’s written, it’s typically hour:minutes.seconds

          No, it isn’t. A decimal is always a decimal.

          That’s not ISO-8601 / RFC 3339.

        There’s only like 10 minutes of actually typing commands.

        Without watching this, the premise sounds very stupid.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
