There is no way a Youtube guide is exactly the same as the wiki. There are several decision points when one install in accordance with the wiki. At its extreme best, a video might represent one correct installation based upon one set of decisions for a particular machine at the time the video was made. the correct way is the wiki https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Installation_guide
