Arch installation with detailed comments giving concept

Is there any article about arch installation with detailed comments giving us concept about system, why we should type all those commands in some specific order?
I want to get understanding what i do when I type commands from Installation guide, not just stupid Cntrl-C Cntrl-V.

Every step of the installation guide links to detailed wiki pages and other resources about any given command.  What else are you looking for?

(Almost?) every command recommended will also have a man page of the same name that you can read.

Really, a good conceptual description would nicely complement the installation guide. That is typically what you can find in books. "How Linux works" is recommended by some.

I meant for new Linux user, who wants to learn Linux by using Arch.

Arch is intended for competent users. If you are new to Linux, then Arch is going to involve reading the wiki and man pages. There is no other way around it.

@ Eric
Arch is too much, too quickly.  Suggest you try starting with Ubuntu, and when you have a grasp of things, maybe Manjaro until you finds its restrictions too severe.  Then you will love Arch.

Re: Arch installation with detailed comments giving concept

It appears that the OP has decided not to use Arch (or at least not to use the forum) and has not been back. I am closing this topic now.
