格式化分区

format partitions

$ mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda1
$ mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda3
$ mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda4

make swap

$ mkswap /dev/sda2

mount swap

$ swapon /dev/sda2

加载分区

$ mount /dev/sda3 /mnt
$ cd /mnt
$ mkdir boot home
$ mount /dev/sda1 boot
$ mount /dev/sda4 home
$ cd /

安装

检测最快的镜像地址

rankmirrors to make this faster (though it takes a while)

mv /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist.orig
rankmirrors -n 6 /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist.orig \>/etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
pacman -Syy

安装系统

# install base packages (take a coffee break if you have slow internet)
pacstrap /mnt base base-devel

设置系统

Generate an fstab file

$ genfstab -p /mnt >> /mnt/etc/fstab

Change root into the new system

$ arch-chroot /mnt

Set the hostname

$ echo [archlinux] > /etc/hostname

Set the time zone

$ ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/Australia/Sydney /etc/localtime

uncomment the needed locales in /etc/locale.gen, then generate them with

$ locale-gen

Set locale preferences in /etc/locale.conf and possibly $HOME/.config/locale.conf

$ echo LANG=en_US.UTF-8 > /etc/locale.conf

Set the root password (root account ,not your account, we will create that later)

$ passwd

安装 bootloader

$ pacman -S grub-bios
$ grub-install /dev/sda

Create a new initial RAM disk

$ mkinitcpio -p linux
$ grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
$ exit

卸载分区并重启

$ umount /mnt/home
$ umount /mnt/boot
$ umout /mnt
$ reboot

Until not, we finish installing archlinux, then we are going to setup the system.

Post-installation

重启后,需要手动获取下 ip 地址

$ dhcpcd

每次系统启动时,自动加载此命令

$ systemctl enable dhcpcd
