It's fast, but you are only installing base, linux and grub.

base-devel should also be there, since it's assumed to be installed by any PKGBUILD you'd want to build with makepkg.

But yes. It does what it said it would do: Install a basic, minimal Arch system in just over a minute.

It takes a while but I'm surprised the WR would be nearly 72 minutes.

I intentionally misunderstood for (not very) comedic effect

There's only like 10 minutes of actually typing commands.

Without watching this, the premise sounds very stupid.

You reached the end
