First install was Ubuntu 9.04 on a very basic and mainstream Dell desktop at the time. Most recent was Arch on a 2013 MacBook Air. Honestly, the only thing that made this complicated was that the bootloader was so out of date that it didn’t recognize the newer NVME drive I put in it. After installing Arch, I messed around for a while getting the Fn/shortcut keys set up perfectly. I would not have even thought of doing that back in 2009.
why?, how did you configured your last install?
