I want to get into Arch Linux, but I don't have that much experience and I feel like it'll be easier to set it up in a virtual machine rathen than dual booting, I've used Oracle VirtualBox before but it's very laggy. Are there any other VMs that aren't as laggy, or do I just have a hardware issue?

I've never tried the extension pack, but I do have the guest additions. How do you install it?

    Here's a decent guide on how to do it for an Ubuntu VM (instructions should apply to Arch too.) Since you'll be manually downloading guest-additions, just skip the "prerequisites" section.

    An here's a guide on how to install the extension pack.

    Pray, post here if you run into any troubles (you shouldn't ✌️.)
