Bash only script for installing Arch Linux using the vanilla Arch ISO. Configuration and install all done from adding a few details, all the rest is done for you. - matty-r/Lazy-Arch

Hey all,

Just thought I’d share my kinda unattended installer. I know there are a number of scripts out there, but thought others might be interested in this style of installer.

Boot into the official Arch Linux ISO then download the script.

There is an installation config file where you choose which bundles you want installed, and things like the root drive and username etc.

The install will ask for the root password and your user password and that should be it. The rest of the script will go through and automatically install all your selected packages (plus further config if needed), do the regional stuff for timezones etc

I haven’t updated the script in a while and it hasn’t been tested by many others so your mileage may vary. But here it is, warts and all.

      I haven’t been big on the AI bandwagon, buty curiosity was piqued. I used AI to write an install script, and I am gonna test it on a VM. It’s quite robust if it works.

      And I’m gonna hand rewrite it to be note modular instead of one script.
