Again, replace X with the drive letter of the disk the partition belongs to. The Arch Linux installation downloads the necessary files through a mirror. To speed up the download, you need to set up the mirror list to make the fastest mirrors at the top. Installing a reflector lets you update the mirror and sorts it by download speed.

However, Arch needs an install script or graphical installer that takes you through the install, and at the end of it you should have a working system where you have at least one user set up, and ALL of the system hardware is functional.
Part of the install script or installer should let you install a GUI desktop of your choice and install it if you choose to. What a garbage and mystification of installation.
