Additional packages you need to install
Well i was trying to get a copy of arch linux working on a computer. My question is what are some additional packages (if any) do you need to install, to get a decently working copy of arch?

Re: Additional packages you need to install
It depends what you want it to do...
You could install X and run a graphical environment, or not.

Welcome to the forums.
Yea i consulted that, but the additional packages i was talking about was during the installation where it asks you to select packages, i selected the normal ones and the development packages. Is there anymore i need to pick, or should i be fine with just those?
Anyways thanks for the welcome aswell.

Re: Additional packages you need to install
You should be fine just selection the ones you have. Anything else you need can be installed later.
