  4.  
  5. # Usage:
  6. #
  7. # 1. Copy to Arch USB stick.
  8. #
  9. # 2. Boot system with Arch USB and begin install process.
  10. #
  11. # 3. Access the files you copied to Arch USB:
  12. #
  13. #     NOTE: First mount your root partition to /mnt/ or else you'll need to redo these steps after.
  14. #
  15. #     $ mkdir -p /mnt/usb
  16. #     $ lsblk -f    <-- Find the Arch USB device. It likely is /dev/sdb1.
  17. #     $ mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/usb
  18. #     $ cd /mnt/usb/
  19. #     $ ls -al
  20. #     <Now you can see what you copied to the Arch USB>
  21. #
  22. # 4. Run this script when its time to install packages:
  23. #
  24. #     $ ./pacstrap.sh
  25. #
  26. # 5. Generate an fstab file:    <-- Done after pacstrap step if you follow https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Installation_guide
  27. #
  28. #    $ genfstab -U /mnt >> /mnt/etc/fstab
  29. #
  30. #    NOTE: After running genfstab the mounted usb will get added to /mnt/etc/fstab.
  31. #          You need to remove these lines from /mnt/etc/fstab (e.g. $ vim /mnt/etc/fstab, delete the /usb line, and save)
  32. #          or else Linux will not boot without the USB plugged in:
  33. #
  34. #          # /dev/sdb1 LABEL=ARCH_######
  35. #          UUID=####-####          /usb        vfat        rw,relatime,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=437,iocharset=ascii,shortname=mixed,utf8,errors=remount-ro   0 2

  37. # Update pacman mirrors using reflector.
  38. reflector --verbose --country "United States" --latest 10 --protocol https --sort rate --save /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
  39.
