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 (Ive 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 =/=. When you boot into
the live ISO, execute the following command:
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :exports code
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.
dedicated to =/home=, the other to the root partition =/=.
** Update the system
First of all, lets make sure we have a sorted mirrorlist for pacman.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :exports code :dir /sudo::
pacman -Sy reflector
reflector --country France --country Germany --latest 200 \
--protocol http --protocol httpqs --sort rate \
--save /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
#+END_SRC
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.
Now, lets update the system in order to be sure to have the latest
version.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :dir /sudo:: :exports code
sudo pacman -Syu --noconfirm
sudo pacman -S git emacs --needed --noconfirm
#+END_SRC
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.
** Install =yay= and all the official repos packages
Next step is to install the AUR helper =yay= (DO NOT use =yaourt=, it is
discontinued, seriously updated and represents a serious security flaw).
Lets clone it in a folder =fromGIT= that will be in our home folder. This is
also where well download every other packages well install from git.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :dir ~ :exports code
*** Get the latest live system with fast mirrors
When you boot into the live ISO, execute the following command:
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :exports code
pacman -Syu reflector
reflector --country France --country Germany --latest 200 \
--protocol http --protocol https --sort rate \
--save /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
#+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
Then you can use a custom script to ease your installation of Arch if you do
not wish to do it manually. Personally, Ive 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 :exports code
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.
Once your system is installed, reboot and remove your installation media
from your computer.
** Install =yay= if it hasnt been done during the system installation
Next step is to install the AUR helper =yay=. *DO NOT* use =yaourt=, it is
discontinued, seriously updated and represents a serious security flaw.
Lets clone =yay= in a folder =fromGIT= that will be in our home folder. This
is also where well download every other packages well install from git.
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :dir ~ :exports code
mkdir -p fromGIT
cd fromGIT
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/yay.git
cd yay
makepkg -si --noconfirm
#+END_SRC
We now have our AUR helper!
Now, we can install all the packages I usually have installed on my computer.

** Update the system
Congrats, Arch is now installed on your system! But we are not done yet.
Lets update the system, just in case some packages were updated during the
installation. And lets install =yadm= (our dotfiles manager) and =emacs=
while were at it.
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :exports code
yay -Syua yadm emacs
#+END_SRC
Given how many packages will be install from the AUR, Ill probably have to
type my password a few times.
** Set up =yadm=
=yadm= is my dotfiles manager. It has some very interesting, including host
and machine-specific files and file content, as can be seen in
=dotfiles/.config/i3/config##yadm.j2=.
=.config/i3/config##yadm.j2=. It also manages some files system-wide (well,
actually =home=-wide), so you usually dont have to symlink anything.
For some reason, when Im in i3, polybar crashes when I run any =yadm=
command, so I made the =C-S-p= shortcut to relaunch it at will.
*** Get the dotfiles
You should clone the dotfiles with the help of =yadm=. For that purpose, you
can execute either of the two following commands.
- From [[https://labs.phundrak.fr/phundrak/dotfiles][labs.phundrak.fr]]:
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :dir ~ :exports code
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :dir ~ :exports code
yadm clone https://labs.phundrak.fr/phundrak/dotfiles.git
#+END_SRC
- From [[https://github.com/phundrak/dotfiles][Github]]:
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :dir ~ :exports code
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :dir ~ :exports code
yadm clone https://gitlab.com/phundrak/dotfiles.git
#+END_SRC
*** Generate the alt dotfiles
=yadm= will need to generate the host-specific dotfiles. To do so, you can
run the following command:
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :dir ~ :exports code
yadm alt
#+END_SRC
** Set up Emacs
The first thing to do after setting up our system is setting up Emacs.
*** Download Spacemacs
First, lets download Spacemacs.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :dir ~ :exports code
git clone https://github.com/syl20bnr/spacemacs ~/.emacs.d
#+END_SRC
Lets switch Spacemacs branch to =develop=.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :dir ~/.emacs.d :exports code
git checkout develop
#+END_SRC
*** Set the custom layers
As mentionned above, I use some custom layers. Lets symlink these to the
private folder of our =.emacs.d/= folder.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :dir ~/.emacs.d/private :exports code
for d in ~/dotfiles/spacemacs-layers/*
ln -s $d
end
#+END_SRC
*** Symlink the Emacs config
Lets not forget our Spacemacs/Emacs config, well symlink it to our home
directory.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :dir ~ :exports code
ln -s ~/dotfiles/.spacemacs
#+END_SRC
** Install the Fish shell
As mentionned above, I use the fish shell as my main shell. And I use some
extensions too that I installed from fisher, and custom functions.
*** Install fisher
Lets install fisher:
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :exports code
curl https://git.io/fisher --create-dirs -sLo \
~/.config/fish/functions/fisher.fish
#+END_SRC
Awesome! Now, onto the fisher packages:
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :exports code
fisher add edc/bass franciscolourenco/done jethrokuan/fzf jethrokuan/z \
jorgebucaran/fish-getopts laughedelic/pisces \
matchai/spacefish tuvistavie/fish-ssh-agent
#+END_SRC
*** Install the fish config and custom functions
I will be symlinking my fishfile to its location =~/.config=.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :dir ~/.config/ :exports code
ln -s ~/dotfiles/config.fish
#+END_SRC
Now, in the =functions= subdirectory, lets symlink all of my custom
functions.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :dir ~/.config/fish/functions :exports code
for f in ~/dotfiles/fishfunctions/*.fish
ln -s $f
end
#+END_SRC
** Install the dotfiles
*** Update the submodules
Alright, lets do something about all these dotfiles laying around. First,
lets symlink those that are in our home directory.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :exports code
yadm submodule update
#+END_SRC
*** Update the remotes
Now, lets make sure we have the correct remotes set up for the dotfiles.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :exports code :dir ~/dotfiles
yadm remote set-url origin "git@labs.phundrak.fr:phundrak/dotfiles.git"
yadm remote set-url github "git@github.com:phundrak/dotfiles.git"
yadm remote set-url origin "https://labs.phundrak.fr/phundrak/dotfiles.git"
yadm remote add-url github "https://github.com/phundrak/dotfiles.git"
#+END_SRC
You can swap the two links if you feel more comfortable with Github as the
=origin= remote, just rename the =github= remote to something like
=phundraklabs= or something like that.
If you have already generated (or copied, but dont do that) your SSH keys
and uploaded them to Github and/or to Phundrak Labs, you can use the
following urls instead as the remotes urls.
#+BEGIN_SRC text
git@labs.phundrak.fr:phundrak/dotfiles.git
git@github.com:phundrak/dotfiles.git
#+END_SRC
*** Symlink the dotfiles
Lets now symlink our dotfiles. First, well take care of those that should
be symlinked to our home directory.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :dir ~ :exports code
ln -s ~/dotfiles/.Xresources
ln -s ~/dotfiles/.gitignore_global
ln -s ~/dotfiles/.nanorc
ln -s ~/dotfiles/rustfmt.toml
ln -s ~/dotfiles/.signature
ln -s ~/dotfiles/.tmux.conf.local
ln -s ~/dotfiles/tmux/.tmux.conf
ln -s ~/dotfiles/.config/i3 .i3
*** Get our git submodules
Our dotfiles rely on a couple of submodules we should get. Lets download
them.
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :dir ~ :exports code
yadm submodule update --init --recursive
#+END_SRC
Finally, lets symlink everything that belongs to the =~/.config= folder.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :dir ~/.config :exports code
for elem in ~/dotfiles/.config/*
ln -s $elem
end
*** Generate the alt dotfiles
=yadm= will need to generate the host-specific dotfiles. To do so, you can
run the following command:
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :dir ~ :exports code
yadm alt
#+END_SRC
And with that, we should have all of our dotfiles placed where they need to
be!
** Set up Emacs
Now that we have our dotfiles installed, lets set up Emacs. First, lets
download Spacemacs.
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :dir ~ :exports code
git clone https://github.com/syl20bnr/spacemacs ~/.emacs.d
#+END_SRC
In our =.emacs.d= directory, lets switch Spacemacs branch to =develop=.
#+BEGIN_SRC sh :dir ~/.emacs.d :exports code
git checkout develop
#+END_SRC
The rest of this READMEs code blocks should now be executable from Emacs
itself, and we should be able to have a perfectly running Emacs installation.
Thats the power of Org-mode!
** Install our needed packages
Now, we can install all the packages I usually have installed on my computer.

#+END_SRC
Given how many packages will be install from the AUR, Ill probably have to
type my password a few times.
For some reasons, if you directly install =compton-tryone-git= without
installing =compton= first, the package wont work, which is why I made you
install =compton= in the command above. Now you can install
=compton-tryone-git=. It will replace =compton=, so say “yes” when it warns
you about the package conflict and whether =compton= should be removed.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :exports code
yay -S compton-tryone-git
#+END_SRC
** Enable and start some services
As you can see above, docker has been installed. Lets enable and start its
service.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :dir /sudo:: :exports code
systemctl enable docker
systemctl start docker
#+END_SRC
I also usually add myself as a member of the =docker= group because I dont
like prefixing every single docker command with =sudo=. So lets execute this
command:
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :exports code
sudo usermod -aG docker $USER
#+END_SRC
Depending on my machine, I might enable the SSH server shipped with
=openssh=. Edit your =/etc/ssh/sshd_config= file as needed, then lets do
that here:
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :dir /sudo:: :exports code
systemctl enable sshd
systemctl start sshd
#+END_SRC
** Install Fisher and our fish shell extensions
As mentionned above, I use the fish shell as my main shell. And I use some
extensions too that I installed from fisher, and custom functions.First,
lets install fisher:
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :exports code
curl https://git.io/fisher --create-dirs -sLo \
~/.config/fish/functions/fisher.fish
#+END_SRC
Awesome! Now, onto the fisher packages:
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :exports code
fisher add edc/bass franciscolourenco/done jethrokuan/fzf jethrokuan/z \
jorgebucaran/fish-getopts laughedelic/pisces matchai/spacefish \
tuvistavie/fish-ssh-agent
#+END_SRC
Now our fish shell is ready to rock! Plus, we already have our custom
functions installed from our dotfiles!
** Install packages from git
Now, we move on to the installation of git-based packages.

git clone https://github.com/hakimel/reveal.js.git
#+END_SRC
** Set your locale
Archs default locale configuration is crap. Like… really. It took me a while
to figure out why some elements in polybar didnt work along with some other
pieces of software. So, go and uncomment the locales youll use in
=/etc/locale.gen=. I personally have =en_US.UTF-8=, =fr_FR.UTF-8= and
=ja_JP.UTF-8= uncommented, but what you choose is really up to you. Then run
the following command as sudo.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :dir /sudo:: :exports code
locale-gen
#+END_SRC
Now you can edit your =/etc/locale.conf= file. Mine looks like this, edit it
to fit your needs.
#+BEGIN_SRC conf :exports code
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
** Launch X
Aaaand we should finally be good to launch X for the first time! My
installation logs me in the tty by default, and I do this by choice, I dont
really like display managers or desktop environments. So, to launch i3, lets
run =startx=.
** Install Rust
*** Install the toolchains
When using rust, I bounce between two toolchains, the =stable= toolchain and
the =nightly= toolchain. To install them, I will use =rustup= which has
already been installed.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :exports code
rustup default stable
rustup default nightly
#+END_SRC
This will both download the stable toolchain and set it as the default one.
Now to install the nightly toolchain, lets run this:
This will both download the nightly toolchain and set it as the default one.
Yup, I like to live dangerously. Now to install the stable toolchain, lets
run this:
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :exports code
rustup toolchain install nightly
rustup toolchain install stable
#+END_SRC
This one is updated about daily (hence the name), so well often have to run
the following command:
The nightly toolchain is ironically updated about daily (hence the name…
sort of?), so well often have to run the following command:
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :exports code
rustup update
#+END_SRC
*** Install some utilities
Well need some utilities when developing Rust from Emacs, namely =rustfmt=
and =racer=. Lets install them with =cargo=.
#+BEGIN_SRC fish
cargo install rustfmt racer
#+END_SRC
** Clean the =pacman= and =yay= cache
Finally, we are almost done! Lets clean the cache of =pacman= and =yay=
#+BEGIN_SRC fish :dir /sudo:: :exports code
yay -Sc --noconfirm
#+END_SRC
You should now run a system pretty close to the one I have on my main
computer and my thinkpad.
