# archinstall
This repository is intended to provide an installation script for Arch Linux so that it can be used during the installation process.
Note: There are many Arch Install scripts out there but I wanted to create my own for an educational purpose. 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.
