    Which parts are you unsure about? I think one of the first things I install on a new Arch is yay - it makes package management so much nicer.

    im not particularly sure, it feels kind of clunky, mostly because dualbooting. I've been using arch on my main workstation for like 4 years now, im familiar with it. I think i just need to fully configure everything, and probably write out some form of dot file for setting it up lol. Then it'll be very similar to my primary deb install on that system.

    I did also find out that optimus sucks ass and is no fun. Setting it to dedicated nvidia graphics in bios helps significantly, though booting in optimus mode still leaves performance on the table, i assume due to overhead from the igpu. I'm not super familiar with hardware like this frankly. Like i said, interesting experiment, mobile hardware kinda ass though.
