once you can boot on your freshly installed arch and you are connected to internet, run the post-install.sh script

You can run it as root or as a regular user but this user have to be a sudoer

the script will propose you functions to automatize some recurent process

• create a regular user
• install some basics packages
• apply some config and cosmetics to prompt, vim, git, etc
• create a gnupg key
• secure the system (very very very basic)
• install xorg server
• install kde plasma 5 desktop manager
• install AUR helper: yaourt
• install CUPS (for printer)
• (not ready) install long term support kernel
• install my default package setup (PIM, office, graphic design, devel)

bugs

This script is only my note taking along my discovery of Arch Linux install (after a year using Manjaro

It's not fully tested, and may fail at some points, feel free to report bugs, i would be glad to help, or fixe them, if i can/have the time/etc.

Feel free to fixe bugs, add features, with pull requests

This script reflect my vision of a an arch linux install, maybe not yours ...

This script only intend to install arch linux + plasma5 on my laptop only (gigabyte P34W v4) but it may also work for yours

Learning

You may want to read and follow the post-install.sh script instead of runing it :)
