Ah ok gotcha. My plan was to try dual booting so i still have a working arch system in case something doesn't work. Thanks for the tips!

I love Void, but the small repo did make me change to Artix with Runit.

Honestly, Void is pretty straightforward, great distro.

I keep forgetting artix can do runit, I'll have to tinker with that
