## Requirements
|

||||

|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Usage
|
||||
|

Boot into the Arch Linux live ISO, then run:
|
||||

||||
pacman -Sy git
|
||||
git clone https://github.com/LogalDeveloper/Arch-Linux-Installer.git

./install-arch-linux.sh
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Customization
|
||||
|
||||
Profiles and package lists are defined in `config/profiles.conf`. Custom CA certificates can be added to `files/certs/`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Disclaimer
|
||||
|
||||
This installer is provided as-is. It is designed around my specific use case and probably makes assumptions that don't fit all hardware or configurations.
|
||||
|
||||
**Use at your own risk.** Always have backups before installing any operating system.
