Goals, Objectives & Strategy
- investigate the current installers for Arch Linux
- compare and learn for the Carli project
Preliminary
Tip :
first see a few installations
to understand what it takes
to install an Arch Linux operating system.
Any of these “All-in-one installations” will do fine.
You will get a general grasp of the things to do.

- ArcoLinux wiki at ArcoLinux Phase 5
Course
There are more ways than one to get an Arch Linux operating system on your hardware.
Here we build upon the work of Matmoul and follow the installation steps to install Arch Linux and later Lxde as desktop.
First we get the Arch Linux iso from archlinux.org.
Then we boot it up and get the installationscript from the net.
See the links on this website : https://github.com/MatMoul/archfi
We need to make the script executable so we do the following
chmod +x ./archfi
then we can launch it with
./archfi
Then you better follow the video as it takes a while to go over all the settings.

In previous video we followed the Arch Desktop Installer – this time we stop after the Arch Fast Installer and get our data in from the desktop we like on https://github.com/arcolinuxd.
With some common sense and the help of our wiki on https://arcolinuxd.com – see phase 5 and the all-in-one tutorials you will know what to do at what time.
Then you decide what scripts you will run and which not.
Re-use our scripts and change them to your scripts.
