Installing Part 4 - After restart

This assumes that Part 3 is already done and you restarted successfully.

  1. Login as root
  2. add a new user: useradd -m -g users -G wheel,storage,power,input,lp,sys -s /bin/bash 'username'
    • set a password for this user, passwd [username]
  3. Add the wheel group to sudoers
    • echo '%wheel ALL=(ALL) ALL' > /etc/sudoers.d/99_wheel_is_cool
  4. exit and login to your user account
  5. Lock the root account passwd -l root
  6. ping google.com, if you don't have a connection, repeat process from step 1, using nmcli instead
    1. e.g. for wifi nmcli dev wifi rescan, then nmcli dev wifi connect [SSID] passowrd [PASSWORD]
  7. Clone this repository into something like .arch-setup, git clone https://github.com/tholinka/Arch-Setup.git .arch-setup
  8. Run 00 scripts in scripts, then install the meta packages in packages, finally run the other scripts in scripts
  9. configure installed packages
    1. switch to new kernel (if installed)
    • copy /boot/loader/config/arch.conf to arch-[kernel name].conf
    • edit /boot/loader/loader.conf to default to linux-[kernel name], e.g. linux-zen
    • add -[kernel name] to the vmlinuz and initramfs lines of the config
  10. reboot again, you should reboot into a login menu.
    • for wifi, open up Settings -> Network and use that menu now
