I've installed Gentoo from a stage1 install. I've kept the same KDE Neon install running for over a decade, including moving the 3 SSDs that made up the install to another desktop.
But I've never managed to successfully bootstrap an arch system.
What was the problem? I can see that if you don't get past one of the steps described in the wiki, then you're blocked. But I think if one has some experience with shell, CLIs and TUIs, it should be possible to follow the steps until you have a bootable system.
Is it worth it to try that, maybe through multiple attempts? Idk.
