Arch-Bootstrap

My own Arch bootstrap script, including postinstall. Should work out of the box from Fedora 30 and newer and a running system using:

LVM partitions
UEFI boot
One nvme SSD
Intel Graphics

preparation

make sure to backup any data you want to keep, managing partitions can be tricky.
Recommended: from Fedora run dnf install -y blivet-gui

clone this repository

git clone https://github.com/TesterTech/Arch-Bootstrap.git && cd Arch-Bootstrap

Adjust script parameters if needed

These parameters can be adjusted based on what you want. Keep in mind that LVM_PARTITION could be different on your machine based on the choice of your partition.
To check the LVM_PARTITION run ls -l /dev/mapper

ARCH_VERSION=2020.06.01
LVM_PARTITION=rhel-arch--root

Run the get-arch-bootstrap.sh script

Run ./get-arch-bootstrap.sh
The script asks for your password because of sudo

Run the postinstall script

Set the root password
Validate mkinitcpio and fstab.auto files
Edit the fstab.auto to:
- Keep /home /boot and /boot/efi as they are
- Remove unneeded Fedora root partition from the file
- Change /mnt/archroot to /
Once script is done, install any additional software you want using pacman

Exit Arch-chroot (Control + d)

Download the 40_custom file to /etc/grub.d/40_custom
Run the Grub command sudo grub2-mkconfig -o "$(readlink -e /etc/grub2-efi.cfg)" to consolidate the Grub config
Reboot
