   Really?  Arch linux seems to be another animal.   
      
   Yes, ultimately 'cd' and 'ls' etc are linux, but in reading about installing   
   Arch, it   
   seems as if that system isn't wrapped up at all and you have to manually   
   install it 'your'   
   way not Mint's way or Ubuntu's way.
