As a new Antergos user, I want to share my experience when installing Antergos 2016 on my computer. In order to install Antergos, you must be connected to the internet. Cnchi software will update itself to the most recent version from the Official repository. Before we go through, you may want to check my Antergos 2016 Screenshots.
Steps to install Antergos 2016
Step 1. Open Antergos Installer
Go to App menu and click Install Antergos
It will open the Antergos installer
Click Install to continue to the next installation step.
Step 2. Choose your Language
Select the available language from the list.
Step 2. System Check Summary
At this point, it is better to fullfill all the Antergos requirements such as minimum hardware, internet connection etc.
Step 3. Select your location
You can see more countries by clicking Show All Location checkbox.
Step 4. Select Timezone
Step 5. Select the keyboard layout
If you don't know which one, I suggest to select English (US) from the list.
Step 6. Select your Desktop
This is the interesting part. Antergos 2016 offers easy way to choose any available Desktop Environment during installation. You can choose from 6 different DE. Gnome, KDE, MATE, Cinnamon, Openbox and Xfce. Again, it needs internet connection to download some packages required by the DE to be correctly installed on Antergos.
Step 7. Additional Features selection
At this step you may add some other features or software available. I recommend to enable AUR and Flash Player from the list.
Step 8. Installation Type
This is the crucial step. Select the installation type from the list. The first option will use your hard disk for Antergos installation. The second one is the manual method.
Step 9. Select Hard Disk
You will need to specify which disk to be used. On this example, I will install Antergos to a flash disk, not hard drive. Select the drive for installation and also specify the boot loader installation.
Step 10. Installation Summary
You will see the installation summary displayed on screen.
Step 11. Create User account
You will need to create a new user account for Antergos system
