This tiny package without any additional dependencies provides more
tools to maintain / work on the existing system or even create a new
Arch Linux system from the created one. A very useful capability worth
an additional package.
|
|
This makes sure only the `root` user can modify contents of the `/boot`
partition and only the `root` user and members of its group can read the
content.
Otherwise on `bootctl install` two warnings were raised.

The Linux kernel uses the last `console=` kernel command line parameter
as the "primary console". Only on that one the LUKS unlock prompt is
displayed.
Thus at the moment only one of the two consoles (serial / graphical) can
be fully supported. Graphical is chosen since it is the more "default"
option which should work everywhere.
Full dual-support is appreciated and might be possible to implement in
the future.

This avoids saving a multi-gigabyte image file to disk and streams
directly to the target block device.

|
nftables is a modern Linux firewall software. It is enabled by default
using the package-provided default rules.
|
|
This can be installed on demand. `top` is anyway available.
|
|
This replaces nano as editor.
|
|
This switches from:
- NetworkManager
- chrony
to:
- systemd-networkd
- systemd-resolved
- systemd-timesyncd
- iwd
This reduces the required packages, moves to more minimal software and
allows convenient configuration based on simple text files.

This is an incremental step towards secure boot and modernizes the boot
process. Furthermore less packages have to be installed, the bootloader
configuration is simpler and everything is file-based instead of `dd`ing
into the master boot record directly.
|
|
This allows to use the final system with Qemu's `-nographic` option.
This is more convenient since no keyboard layout has to be configured
and text can be copied and pasted.
|
|
This allows to use bigger drives like 4 TB and above.
