You haven't even used gentoo. What is bad about it?

>>56994561
Gentoo is a timesink. Install antergos

>not using Antergos
Lmao

>>56994788
But they did. Calculate linux just werks.

>>56994788
Calculate linux

Install gentoo.

>>56994561
>>wait forever for the kernel to compile
My Lenovo Thinkpad™ with Funtoo does not have this problem

I'm convinced that nobody uses Arch or Gentoo for real productivity. They're just timewasters for neckbeards to install on their VMs and Thinkpads and circlejerk about how complicated their OS is to install.

>>56995069
I use Antergos on my Desktop, is arch without autism and easy Installer. 2 years and 0 problems.

To be fair, gentoo can be difficult first time. But once you get the hang of it, it's very easy.

Debian user who compiles his own kernel here.
It just works.

>not just pressing cmd-r on boot and selecting reinstall OS X

>>56995555
B-but the whole point of arch is the cli installation, anon. Besides, when you take screenshots, your screenfetch is going to show the antergos logo and everybody is going to think you're a n00b.

>>56995069
>Arch
>complicated to install
When will this meme finally die?

>>56995904
You can do a CLI installation with any distribution.
I don't know why people think Arch is somehow special in that regard.

Antergos kiddies detected. You lot are as bad as those manjaro fags.

I see no problem with it.

Did you set grub to look for your lvm partition?

On my laptop with super shitty core i3-4something (just 2 fucking cores) the kernel compiles within 15 minutes. Stop shitposting please.

>>56995875
>>56995738
compiling the kernel isn't even the problem
manually having to fuck around with CFLAGS on a per-package basis is

>>56997677
>>56997968
should I seriously be so autistic as to manually create an initramfs?
something that is easily automated in every single sane distro?

>>56998211
if you have to touch your CFLAGS after initial setup you're definitely doing something wrong

>>56998259
I specified

O2 -fstack-protector-strong -Wformat -Wformat-security -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fPIE -pie -Wl,-z,relro,-z,now

as my general cflags

>>56998327
oh and -Werror=format-security

>>56998327
Do you know that PIE is useless without PaX kernel?

>>56998327
why specify all of those flags manually? you could just use the hardened gcc profile

You're doing it wrong if you're waiting forever for the kernel to compile, should take a few mins with a minimal/tailored config.
But oh wait, you're a shitposting arch cunt. Makes sense now.

>>56998380
why?
though I did build a pax kernel

>>56998449
i haven't rtfmd so i had no idea what that is

>>56994561
Because compiling everything from sauce is a meme.
