* Introduction
:PROPERTIES:

Here will be presented what I do to get my system up and running on a fresh
Arch Linux install. These installation instructions were written in order to
get an Arch Linux distribution up and running with the same configuration as
my main computer’ s and my travelling laptop’ s configuration.
* Install Arch Linux
:PROPERTIES:
2020-06-07 15:36:02 +00:00
:CUSTOM_ID: Install_Arch_Linux-ac7ad3b2
2020-01-16 18:48:14 +00:00
:END:
I usually install Arch from the [[https://www.archlinux.org/download/ ][vanilla ISO ]], however I began using [[https://github.com/MatMoul/archfi ][archfi ]] to
install easily the distro (I’ ve done it so many times, I know how it works
now). Usually, my distros will be installed on at least two partitions, one
dedicated to =/home= , the other to the root partition =/= .
If the computer supports EFI bootloaders, the EFI partition will be mounted on
=/boot= . I generally use rEFInd as my boot manager, but if you are more
comfortable with another one, just install what you want. Be aware that if you
format your =/boot= partition, you will delete all boot managers that already
exist; so, if you are dual-booting, *DO NOT FORMAT IT* . Yes, I made the
mistake of wiping the Windows boot manager.
The swap partition is always at least 4GB large, and I should have a total of
12GB of combined RAM and swap. This means on my main computer I have 16GB of
RAM and 4GB of swap, but on my thinkpad I have 4GB of RAM and 8GB of swap.
** Get the latest live system with fast mirrors
:PROPERTIES:
2020-06-07 15:36:02 +00:00
:CUSTOM_ID: Install_Arch_Linux-Get_the_latest_live_system_with_fast_mirrors-59d2a90d
2020-01-16 18:48:14 +00:00
:END:
When you boot into the live ISO, execute the following command:
2020-07-17 13:26:08 +00:00
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :exports code
2020-01-16 18:48:14 +00:00
pacman -Sy reflector
reflector -c France -c Germany -l 200 -p http -p https --sort rate \
--save /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist --verbose
#+END_SRC
This will update the packages from your live ISO, and you will get the best
mirrors for your installation. Of course, change the countries accordingly to
your location.
** Install the system
:PROPERTIES:
2020-06-07 15:36:02 +00:00
:CUSTOM_ID: Install_Arch_Linux-Install_the_system-3ff49aa6
2020-01-16 18:48:14 +00:00
:END:
Then you can use a custom script to ease your installation of Arch if you do
not wish to do it manually. Personally, I’ ve done it several times already, I
know how the distro works, I just want to be able to install my distro
quickly now.
#+BEGIN_SRC sh
wget archfi.sf.net/archfi
# Or from matmoul.github.io/archfi if SourceForge is down
sh archfi
#+END_SRC
Then, follow the instructions and install Arch Linux. Take the opportunity to
install as many packages as you need, mainly =yay= which I use as my package
manager (it is just a wrapper for =pacman= ) and AUR helper, and
=pacman-contrib= which will help us installing some packages later.
Once your system is installed, reboot and remove your installation media from
your computer.
* Install basic packages
:PROPERTIES:
2020-06-07 15:36:02 +00:00
:CUSTOM_ID: Install_basic_packages-c2cfb42d
2020-01-16 18:48:14 +00:00
:END:
We will need some basic packages in order to run the bootstrap file. So, let’ s
install =fish= (our shell running the script) and =git= .
#+BEGIN_SRC sh
2020-02-17 14:47:12 +00:00
yay -Sy fish git yadm
2020-01-16 18:48:14 +00:00
#+END_SRC
* Execute bootstrap
:PROPERTIES:
2020-09-03 10:15:16 +00:00
:HEADER-ARGS: :tangle ~/.config/yadm/bootstrap :shebang "#!/usr/bin/fish"
2020-06-07 15:36:02 +00:00
:CUSTOM_ID: Execute_bootstrap-e37054ef
2020-01-16 18:48:14 +00:00
:END:
2020-02-17 14:47:12 +00:00
=yadm= comes with a very handy feature: its bootstrap script. It can be
executed automatically once the dotfiles are cloned with yadm:
2020-01-16 18:48:14 +00:00
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :tangle no
2020-02-17 14:47:12 +00:00
yadm clone https://labs.phundrak.com/phundrak/dotfiles
# or if labs.phundrak.com is down or too slow for you
yadm clone https://github.com/phundrak/dotfiles
2020-01-16 18:48:14 +00:00
#+END_SRC
Let’ s take a look at what it does.
** Decrypt private yadm files
:PROPERTIES:
2020-06-07 15:36:02 +00:00
:CUSTOM_ID: Execute_bootstrap-Decrypt_private_yadm_files-68af7157
2020-01-16 18:48:14 +00:00
:END:
Some private files are stored encrypted in the repository of my yadm
dotfiles. I will need them later on during the bootstrap execution.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
yadm decrypt
#+END_SRC
** Get a correct keyboard layout
:PROPERTIES:
2020-06-07 15:36:02 +00:00
:CUSTOM_ID: Execute_bootstrap-Get_a_correct_keyboard_layout-77d24b30
2020-01-16 18:48:14 +00:00
:END:
I use mainly the [[https://bepo.fr/wiki/Accueil ][bépo ]] layout, a French keyboard layout inspired by Dvorak
layouts, however I sometimes need to switch back to the standard French
AZERTY or the American QWERTY layout, so I make it so the Menu key switches
for me my layout between these three. This makes it so my xorg configuration
of my keyboard looks like this:
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
set keyboardconf \
'Section "InputClass"
Identifier "system-keyboard"
MatchIsKeyboard "on"
2020-07-17 14:56:22 +00:00
Option "XkbLayout" "fr"
2020-01-16 18:48:14 +00:00
Option "XkbModel" "pc104"
2020-07-17 14:56:22 +00:00
Option "XkbVariant" "bepo_afnor"
Option "XkbOptions" "caps:ctrl_modifier"
2020-01-16 18:48:14 +00:00
EndSection'
#+END_SRC
So, let’ s set it as our keyboard configuration.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
printf "\n# Set keyboard layout #########################################################\n\n"
echo $keyboardconf | sudo tee /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/00-keyboard.conf
#+END_SRC
** Set our locale
:PROPERTIES:
2020-06-07 15:36:02 +00:00
:CUSTOM_ID: Execute_bootstrap-Set_our_locale-e74d772a
2020-01-16 18:48:14 +00:00
:END:
I use two main locales, the French and US UTF-8 locales, and I like to keep
the Japanese locale activated just in case.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
set mylocales "en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8" "fr_FR.UTF-8 UTF-8" "ja_JP.UTF-8 UTF-8"
#+END_SRC
Let’ s enable these.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
2020-02-22 10:55:17 +00:00
printf "\n# Set locale ##################################################################\n\n"
2020-01-16 18:48:14 +00:00
for item in $mylocales
if test (grep -e "#$item" /etc/locale.gen)
sudo sed -i "/$item/s/ ^#//g" /etc/locale.gen
end
end
#+END_SRC
This is my configuration I usually use when it comes to my locale.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
set localeconf "LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LC_COLLATE=C
LC_NAME=fr_FR.UTF-8
LC_NUMERIC=fr_FR.UTF-8
LC_IDENTIFICATION=fr_FR.UTF-8
LC_TELEPHONE=fr_FR.UTF-8
LC_MONETARY=fr_FR.UTF-8
LC_PAPER=fr_FR.UTF-8
LC_ADDRESS=fr_FR.UTF-8
LC_TIME=fr_FR.UTF-8
LC_MEASUREMENT=fr_FR.UTF-8"
#+END_SRC
Let’ s set it as our system’ s locale.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
echo $localeconf | sudo tee /etc/locale.conf
#+END_SRC
Now we can generate our locale!
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
printf "\n# Generate locale #############################################################\n\n"
sudo locale-gen
#+END_SRC
** Create some folders
:PROPERTIES:

2020-01-16 18:48:14 +00:00
:END:
Let’ s create some folders we might need for mounting our drives, Android
devices and CDs.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
printf "\n# Create directories for mounting #############################################\n\n"
sudo mkdir -p /mnt/ {USB,CD,Android}
sudo chown $USER:(id -g $USER) /mnt/ {USB,CD,Android}
#+END_SRC
We also need the following folder for our nano backups.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
mkdir -p $HOME/.cache/nano/backups
#+END_SRC
** Set user’ s shell to fish
:PROPERTIES:
2020-06-07 15:36:02 +00:00

2020-01-16 18:48:14 +00:00
:END:
First of all, the bootstrap shell will set the user’ s shell to fish.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
printf "\n# Set fish as the default shell ###############################################\n\n"
2020-02-17 15:26:12 +00:00
if not test "$SHELL" = "/usr/bin/fish"
chsh -s /usr/bin/fish
end
2020-01-16 18:48:14 +00:00
#+END_SRC

2020-01-16 18:48:14 +00:00
:END:
Now we’ ll need to be sure =yay= , our AUR helper, is installed on our system.
If it is, we don’ t need to to anything. However, if it isn’ t, we’ ll install
it manually.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
if ! test (which yay)
printf "\n# Installing yay ##############################################################\n\n"
cd
2020-02-17 15:12:57 +00:00
mkdir -p ~/fromGIT
cd ~/fromGIT
2020-01-16 18:48:14 +00:00
