Introduction
By PoliArch you can start the setup to install the system on your hard disk to start the setup must have a device to the system PoliArch on board in this regard see:
- Installing on USB stick (If you wish to launch the USB)
- Download and burn PoliArch (If you wish to launch the CD / DVD)
Note
- Before starting the setup configure the network otherwise the setup will crash
Installation
- The Arch Install Scripts (https://github.com/falconindy/arch-install-scripts) are a set of
script written in Bash to simplify the installation of (Poly) Arch Linux.
This article summarizes a basic process of installation with these scripts.
Partitioning
- Remember to make all stacked block devices like LVM, LUKS or RAID.
- If you are using (U) EFI'll probably need another partition for the system partition (UEFI FAT32> = 512Mb).
- Format partitions
Mounting partitions
- Mount the root partition on /mnt
You must also create the directories to mount other partitions (eg /mnt/boot, /mnt/home, etc. ..) if you want to be taken over by "genfstab."
Install the base system
Before proceeding you must edit the file /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist by enabling mirror to your liking and making sure that it is at the top of the list. This copy of the mirrorlist will also be installed on the new system pacstrap, then should set it right. Use the script pacstrap (https://github.com/falconindy/arch-install-scripts/Blob/master/pacstrap.in) that will install the base system. The group base-devel should be installed if you plan to compile software from the AUR or using ABS.
# pacstrap /mnt base base-devel
Other packages can be installed by adding their names to the previous command (Separated by a space), including the bootloader you want.
Install Bootloader
Grub
System BIOS
# pacstrap /mnt grub-bios
EFI Systems
# pacstrap /mnt grub-efi-x86_64
Installing GRUB after the chroot (/mnt).
Syslinux
# pacstrap /mnt syslinux
Configure the system
- Generate a fstab file with the following command (if you prefer to use the
UUIDs or labels, add -U or -L):
# genfstab -p /mnt >> /mnt/etc/fstab
- Enter through chroot into our new system installed.
# arch-chroot /mnt
- Write your hostname in /etc/hostname
# echo "pc-name"> /etc/hostname
- Create a symbolic link from /usr/share/zoneinfo/Zone/Subzone /etc/localtime
Replace Zone and Subzone according to your preferences. For example:
# ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Rome/etc/localtime
- Set your local in /etc/locale.gen
# locale-gen
- Configure /etc/mkinitcpio.conf according to your need (usually leave unchanged) and create the initial ramdisk image with:
# mkinitcpio-p linux
Configure the bootloader
- For syslinux, edit the file /boot/syslinux/syslinux.cfg to point to the right
partition of / (root). Then type the following command to install (-i), set the boot flag (-a) and install on the MBR (-m).:
# syslinux-install_update -iam
For GRUB:
# grub-install /dev/sdX
Now create the file grub.cfg
# grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
- Set the root password with
# Passwd
- Remove the mounted partitions
# cd; umount /mnt/*; umount /mnt
NOTE: If you are still in a chroot environment, hanging out with
# Exit
or
# Ctrl + D
Restart your computer and continue the configuration of the new system installed.
