Arch Linux UEFI step-by-step installation guide

This is the most up-to-date Arch Linux UEFI installation tutorial.

I still recommend the legacy mode installation https://youtu.be/GKdPSGb9f5s

To write ISO to USB, watch this video https://youtu.be/rpGgTTFKwiU

But if you need or have to use UEFI - Unified Extensible Firmware Interface - then proceed with this tutorial.

Advantages of UEFI:
• UEFI replaces the BIOS firmware interface
• UEFI is compatible with GPT tables
• It is more configurable → boots faster
Advantages of GPT - GUID Partition Table (GPT):
• Supports larger than 2 TB volumes
• Supports up to 128 partitions rather than the 4 primary partitions limited to MBR

These are the command to install Audio and graphical interface I mentioned in the video:
pacman -S pulseaudio pulseaudio-alsa xorg xorg-xinit xorg-server xfce4 lightdm lightdm-gtk-greeter

If you want to install Arch Linux with other than XFCE, use the corresponding command to include in your ~/.xinitrc file and install the corresponding GUI:

xfce:
"exec startxfce4"
sudo pacman -S xfce4

gnome:
"exec gnome-session"
sudo pacman -S gnome

cinnamon:
"exec cinnamon-session"
sudo pacman -S cinnamon

mate:
"exec mate-session"
sudo pacman -S mate

unity:
"exec unity"
Unity installation is tricky - see Arch Linux Wiki

Budgie:
"export XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=Budgie:GNOME"
"exec budgie-desktop"
sudo pacman -S budgie-desktop

openbox:
"exec openbox-session"
sudo pacman -S openbox

i3:
"exec i3"
sudo pacman -S i3

awesome:
"exec awesome"
sudo pacman -S awesome

deepin
"exec startdde"
sudo pacman -S deepin

LXDE
"exec startlxde"
sudo pacman -S lxde
