BlackArch Linux only takes a moment to setup.

There are three ways to go:

1. Install on an existing Arch machine.
2. Use the live ISO.
3. The Full and Netinstall ISOs come with a text-based installer (blackarch-install). The Slim ISO comes with a GUI-based installer. You can use the installer to install BlackArch Linux onto your hard disk.
