Arch Linux / Zen Installer - Yey?

I'm glad to be done with this video. I've been working on it since the weekend and it has been a non-stop hassle.

The Zen Installer is fine for the most part but it froze during the actual install portion at least twice and randomly checked out to lunch while partitioning two more times.

And Arch itself was a bit of a bear. It doesn't like my hardware (allegedly, my Mobo or SSD) and it likes to randomly lock up - you can see this happen in the Manjaro live stream.

Since the base install was lacking so many things, I constantly had to stop and install stuff, which is really thrashy for the video.

Overall, Arch is alright and the Zen Installer is too.

This certainly isn't the best Distro Delves episode but hey, I got to try out a bunch of different image fly-in effects!
