Building up my Arch 64 Install

Posted ImageFinally got my Arch 64bit VM in VirtualBox into a usable state today, so thought I would share it off :)



Font rendering always looks terrible in Virtualbox. I have about 7 VMs at work for various testing reasons, and the fonts always look horrendous :(
I know tell me about it!

It just gets annoying knowing that whatever I do, it will not get any better. That and the fact it is slow as hell :(
Nice look!
can you share the configuration you used?
(Desktop, Partitions, etc.) looks nice btw.

Sorry didnt notice I had comments on here! :(

I believe that Faenza was used around here and that there was a couple of extensions to add Gnome2 styled "Start menu".

As for partitions, I really couldnt remember as its just set up in a VirtualBox VM atm.

When I finally get around to putting it on my desktop, I'll put a post up with much more detailed info.

EDIT: Oh and excuse my arrogance/ignorance, thanks for the like :)
