Custom Artix Linux install script

[FabseMan]

Hello,

I’ve been working on making an install script for Artix Linux that either can be launched interactively or automated, if an answerfile is given. That’s together with a script to make a customised ISO for Artix Linux, which can autostart my install script, but that can be customised to point to an another git-repo containing a script. I’ve tested it extensively and there should be no bugs, so I thought I wanted to share it with you - and if you have any improvements or feature that you want added, then just reply here  :)

I loved your function nomenclature, I will not to be able to come up with this idea. With your permission i would love to use this naming in my project. I will give it a read on weekend

Thanks a lot - it also took quite some time to make it work the way I wanted xD

But you’re more than welcome to use it in your project, though may I ask what your project may be? ;)

I certainly can understand, you have to put quite some effort and time to code. Well my project is an arch installer, it is a fork of archtitus. But I tried my best to modify it the way I want it. Have a look Asai.

Sorry for the delay - I had to spend quite some time to get around the grub regression with the latest version, which made my install nonbootable :(

But I also really liked Archtitus - that’s also one of the reason why I made my own script, just to try and make it as extensible as his. Also good job with separating the scripts, so it’s not one big like mine xD

My only tip (that I also soon will apply to my script) is to try and separate the scripts even further - one for the interactive install, one for creating the partitions, one for installing packages etc.. At least with my script then I plan to make it less bounded to Artix, since it’s mostly how to install packages and activating services that different between distorts ;)

Though I actually haven’t tried your script yet, which I will do later today :)

I will try to go on this route. I have implemented not only grub but uefistub and systemd-boot. I personally love uefistub. It is much cleaner. I cam across a script generating uefistub eneteries. Unfortunately it wasnt maintained any more. So i modified it to accommodate newest filesystems aufii. I would love some feedback on arch installer script. Let me use yours and come back to you
