Check if boot mode is UEFI

Without efivars, the system must boot with BIOS.

Use pacstrap to get the base install.

Make fstab notes for new system.
|
|
|
|
> genfstab -U /mnt >> /mnt/etc/fstab
|
|
|
|
> arch-chroot /mnt
|
|
|
|
> echo 'en_GB.UTF-8' > /etc/default/locale
|
|
|
|
> pacman -Sy networkmanager grub
|
|
|
|
For legacy:
|
|
|
|
> grub-install --target=i386-pc /dev/sda
|
|
|
|
For EFI:
|
|
|
|
> sudo pacman -S efibootmgr
|
|
|
|
> mkdir /boot/efi
|
|
|
|
> grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=/boot/efi --bootloader-id=GRUB --remmovable
|
|
|
|
> grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
|
|
|
|
set local time
|
|
|
|
> ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Belgrade /etc/localtime
|
|
|
|
Find the desired locale's and uncomment them.
|
|
|
|
> vi /etc/locale.gen
|
|
|
|
> locale-gen
|

Make your keyboard changes permenent with:
|
|
|
|
> vi /etc/vconsole.conf
|
|
|
|
Then set: `KEYMAP=uk.map.gz`
|
|
unsure about this bit - is this name just for the loadkeys function?
|
|
|
|
Make a hostname
|
|
|
|
> echo pc > /etc/hostname
|
|
|
|
Set hostnames for network, or at least your own.
|
|
|
|
> vi /etc/hosts
|
|
|
|
# This should have the following, at least:
|
|
|
|
127.0.0.1 localhost
|
|
::1 localhost
|
|
127.0.1.1 [hostname].localdomain [hostname]
|
|
|
|
If the system has a permanent IP address, it should be used instead of localhost.
|
|
|
|
Ping some sites to make sure the network's working
|
|
|
|
> passwd
|
|
|
|
> exit
|
|
|
|
> umount -R /mnt
|
|
|
|
Remove that awful beep sound:
|
|
|
|
> rmmod pcspkr
|
|
|
|
...and make the change permanent:
|
|
|
|
> sudo echo "blacklist pcspkr" >> /etc/modprobe.d/nobeep.conf
|
|
