So it's mainly a personal repository, but if you like the script or want to contribute, you're welcome to use it. + +## Usage + +Advice 1: The archinstall.sh script supports currently just UEFI systems, german localization and installation via cable connection instead of WiFi. + +Advice 2: Execute 'loadkeys de-latin1' after booting to live environment, if you want to set a german keyboard layout. You have to type 'z' for 'y' in loadkeys and 'ß' for the '-' sign. + +1. Download the Arch Linux .iso file and verify it. +2. Write the .iso to a USB stick and boot the machine from this USB stick in UEFI mode. +3. Download the script with 'curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/xengineering/archinstall/master/archinstall.sh > archinstall.sh'. +4. Run the script with 'bash archinstall.sh' and follow the instructions. + + +## To Do + +- [ ] Provide LUKS encryption +- [ ] Provide post-installation script for common settings (DHCP, users, etc.) +- [ ] Support installation with WiFi (instead of cable connection) +- [ ] Modify mirrorlist +- [ ] Support english localization +- [ ] Add also localization for desktop systems +- [ ] Check the result of every command for better security +- [ ] Provide error log +- [x] Automatic partitioning +- [x] Write first version of archinstall.sh + |
