| # 1. First of all of course get Manjaro: | |
| https://manjaro.org/get-manjaro/ | |
| # I recommend using Etcher to copy the image to your USB: | |
| https://etcher.io/ | |
| # 2. Before installing make sure: | |
| # - Secure boot is disabled in BIOS | |
| # - Your SSD, HDD or NVME drive is set to AHCI instead of RAID | |
| # - Fastboot should be on Auto or minimal, but this shouldn't matter to much |
