I am actually experiencing critical issues with my Windows. Care to give your recommendations regarding Debian configuration?
Also, if I may, when manually installing Arch, how does one properly set up fstab when there are multiple mounting points that are not nested, like in the case of /efi/ not being within where the root partition is mounted?
I don't really understand your fstab question as you wrote it, but why aren't you using either
genfstab
or letting archinstall just do all the tedious parts for you?Oh, I do use
genfstab
.I am doing this manually for educational purposes.
EDIT: I have been following the installation guide on a vital machine prior to my Windows malfunction. Among the partition examples I saw ones that have root and efi partitions mounted in a non-nested way. Generating fstab the way it is told in the guide produced a bad fstab for me. I haven't got to retrying to generate fstab since then yet.
