Hey guys this is the third part of the installation of arch. and also the past part for sure...so lets begin











Before doing anything do this first

We will first start with creating a user. A new user for the system.

So now we have our own user and also a password for it :)

Now type the above and do the following

This will give rights for installation from your created user :)

After this we are going to install xfce interface for arch.

This will begin the installation and press enter when ever prompted 2-3 time maybe..
after installation you will have to make sure that you have an .xinit file present in it.

This is how it looks like after the command ls -la you will have to check that file...
now check the file by typing

This will open the file for you to edit and make sure that you uncomment this

This will start xfce :) press ctrl + x and y for yes to save the file and enter

that will make the file executable and you can see it the change of colour makes it.
Now here we install some goodies that come with xfce so we type.

This will install the goodies for your arch xfce interface
