Arch Linux or Gentoo? I want to try GNU/Linux.
PCLinuxOS
Neither of those are a fully free distribution. However, Parabola GNU/Linux-libre, which is recognized by the FSF as being 100% free, is based off of Arch.
If you're just starting out, however, you should pick Trisquel instead.
Gnu+linux you mean?

Save yourself trouble and skip the autist tests thank yourself later.
>>58547559
Gentoo. Better in every which way possible.

On Parabola installer I couldn't get internet working. When I converted Arch to Parabola it was working.

You probably have a botnet internet card; I'd check that out and replace it if so.
>>58548463
It's built in laptop card.
Why is it working with Parabola libre kernel if it's botnet?
Also Parabola blocks DRM microcode on boot so...

Arch is really easy to maintain once you get past the initial hurdle.
Gentoo is a pain in the fucking ass from beginning to finish.

install Solus

WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU PEOPLE ON
If you want to start on GNU/Linux you don't start with those.

Why not? Arch is a good distribution to start.

Hey OP. Ignore the "MUH REDDIT FUCK OFF POSTS". This is a good guide, I'm not kidding.

>>58547772
This, or fedora. Otherwise you'll come straight back to /g/ bitching and moaning about how hard gnu/linux is to use.
>>58547588
This.
PCLinuxOS and TrueOS are the only right choices, OP.
