Arch install

First steps

Font in the console

setfont ter-128n

Connecting to WiFi

iwctl
iwctl > device list
iwctl > station <device> scan
iwctl > station <device> get-networks
iwctl > station <device> connect <name_point>

Time synchronization

timedatectl set-ntp true
timedatectl status

Preparing the file system

fdisk /dev/sda

Creating a partition table

GPT: fdisk > g
DOS: fdisk > o

Section structure

UEFI:
/dev/sda1 - swap (6G)
/dev/sda2 - boot (512m)
/dev/sda3 - btrfs @,@home (all free)

DOS:

/dev/sda1 - swap (6G)
/dev/sda2 - btrfs @,@home (all free)

Creating sections

fdisk > n

Specifying the types of sections

swap: fdisk > t > Linux swap
boot: fdisk > t > EFI

Creating file systems (UEFI)

swap: mkswap /dev/sda1
boot: mkfs.vfat /dev/sda2
btffs: mkfs.btrfs -L "Arch" /dev/sda3

Connect SWAP

swapon /dev/sda1

Creating partitions BTRFS

mount /dev/sda3 /mnt
btrfs subvolume create /mnt/@
btrfs subvolume create /mnt/@home
mkdir /mnt/@/{boot,home}
umount -R /mnt

Mounting partitions

mount -o subvol=/@,ssd,noatime,compress=lzo,space_cache=v2,discard=async /dev/sda3 /mnt
mount -o subvol=/@home,ssd,noatime,compress=lzo,space_cache=v2,discard=async /dev/sda3 /mnt/home
mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/boot

Configere system

Sorting mirrors for installing packages

reflector -c Russia -c Belarus -a 5 --sort rate --save /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

Install base packages

pacstrap /mnt base linux linux-firmware base-devel btrfs-progs dhcpcd iwd vim terminus-font

Generating a partition mount file

genfstab -U /mnt >> /mnt/etc/fstab

Change root dir

arch-chroot /mnt

Change password

passwd

Internet Activation

systemctl enable dhcpcd
systemctl enable iwd

We set the time zone and synchronize the time

ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Moscow /etc/localtime
hwclock --systohc --utc

Name host

echo arch > /etc/hostname

Settings hosts

vim /etc/hosts
--
127.0.0.1   localhost
::1         localhost
127.0.1.1   arch.localdomain    arch

Generating locales

vim /etc/locale.gen
locale-gen

Install locale

vim /etc/locale.conf
-->
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LANGUGE=en_US
LC_ALL=C
LC_COLLATE=C

Settings console

vim /etc/vconsole.conf
-->
KEYMAP=us
FONT=ter-128n

BTRFS

vim /etc/mkinitcpio.conf
-->
MODULES=(btrfs)

Editing hooks

vim /etc/mkinitcpio.conf
-->
HUKS=(...keymap)

Creating the initial environment

mkinitcpio -P

Installing the loader

pacman -S grub
grub-install /dev/sda

-- Если UEFI:
pacman -S efibootmgr
grub-install --efi-directory=/boot

grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

Completion

exit
umount -R /mnt
reboot
