Hello, I'm just now finishing converting manjaro to llinux.
Just a headsup for anyone trying this in the future: it's a little outdated. There's a few details missing here and there. Nothing that stops you.
This is a great starting point but there's a few spots you'll run into problems. Do not blindly follow this tutorial. If you can't install Arch because the documentation is too difficult to read and understand, converting to Arch will not go much better.
You need to know how to install Arch from scratch and you need to know how to configure it if you want to use it. Because if you don't you will have a very hard time.
Again, this is a great starting point and I'm very thankful the authored published it :)
Thanks a lot for your appreciation. And as I didn't update this for one year, whomever wants do this, they should first consider what this man has said.
I've been a professional C, Perl, PHP and Python developer.
I'm an ex-sysadmin from the late 20th century.
These days I do more Javascript and CSS and whatnot, and promote UX and accessibility.
I'm going to follow it and see what happens. I have a manjaro laptop and an arch desktop for comparison anyway, first thing I notice looking through it is that there's no GRUB_DISTRIBUTION setting, it's GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR but I suspect that's just cosmetic.

Yes, pretty much. There are still some odd references to Manjaro that pop up from time to time but it worked generally. I had to remove and re-add packages quite a bit before it would stop telling me things conflicted, including a lot of things I didn't think would be a problem, but it never got to the point where I didn't have a DE or anything.
