[arch-general] Beginner's Guide: Disable dhcpd service before setting static ip

Hi,

In the setting up network section of beginner's guide [1], there should be
an instruction to disable dhcpd service before setting up the static ip,
otherwise dhcpd automatically rewrites the resolv.conf file, removing user
set details.

Wanted to confirm if I am right. Can I edit the wiki to include the
instruction:
'systemctl stop dhcpd.service' in the beginning of the "Wired" section?

Thanks!
