But first of all be sure to read http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/The_Arch_Way
Arch Linux targets and accommodates competent GNU/Linux users by giving them complete control and responsibility over the system.

Re: Need help to install Arch

The Beginners Guide is detailed enough for pretty much anything you might need. Read though it, and if you think that you can handle it then go ahead and try Arch.

Re: Need help to install Arch

Just install it on a free partion, in qemu or similar. It will only whipe your other partions if you tell it to do it.

If you don't have a free partion, then you could possibly resize one of your existing ones to make space for a new one. Backups might be recomended if you do though.
