    I have learned a lot about Linux since posting this -- however, I am posting from Manjaro.

    another great distro for ppl who want the benefits of Arch without the hassle to install the XServer (GUI) and other stuff, Manjaro is a great Arch-based distro that does all these jobs for you, and is still lightweight.

    not a lot. later on, installing and configuring Arch on an USB stick took me just over 2 hours. / I have new disk images of SliTaz, CorePure64, Fedora Workstation 31 and Tiny Core v1.0 from January 2009. I also installed QEMU because VirtualBox VMs have slowly become a pain in the anus to manage.

    Finally, something more on-topic -- I got my Arch Linux VM working! Originally gave up on it more than a month ago because I was dumb.

    [2] Manjaro Linux 18.0.4 w/ KDE (my favourite distro), and the 15 MB Tiny Core Linux (tinycorelinux.net). I also have optical disk images of "DSL" (a 50 MB distro that can run on 16 MB of RAM), Ubuntu 18.04.3, and Windows 95/98, though I haven't tried Win9x yet.
