I tested on the latest release, zsh is the default shell now on the install cd.
Did not work for me in virtualbox. It says ".: no such file or directory: install.sh"

It is only an idea, it is not better or worse, only different .

interesting idea!
My plan is to restructure the code in the next days, so I will maybe replace the old style with the select construct. Thank you very much for your input!

You'll have to create an alias for . to source if you want to use it in zsh.

Re: A bash archlinux install script

aichingm, GREAT JOB!!!
Tested on a VM, and it went just great.
Any chance you could make an option to encrypt the HD (of course everything but /boot).
It's just my 2cts.
Again Great Jog!

Re: A bash archlinux install script

Make sure you chmod +x install.sh and then run in that directory with

./install.sh

Re: A bash archlinux install script

UPDATE!!!

I rewrote the script completely!
Implemented some new features like:
zone and subzone are now selectable form a list!
I tried to make the script easier to use by asking for selections and not for text inputs!
Some bug fixed like the lonlae.conf thing

Re: A bash archlinux install script

Do not forget to add version to your script...

Looks much better now

You can search functions much quicker by using

grep ^function install.sh

Look forward to testing smile

Re: A bash archlinux install script

hi,

this sript is really great. I tried it with vmware and the installation went very well but, I had a small bug with Grub.
It shows for a second an error about locales before the Grub menu.
In fact en.mo was missing in /boot/brug/locale/

Re: A bash archlinux install script

Great script! Simple and to the point!

Small syntax issue:

When you are prompted to enter the root password, and the two entries do not match, the script message says "Password not matches!"

This should be revised to something like: "Passwords do not match. Please try again."

Re: A bash archlinux install script

Hi

Can you correct the line 171 in the function ask_base_devel()
171 :        if [[ "$usecmirror" =~ ^[Yy]$ ]] || [[ "$usecmirror" =~ ^[Nn]$ ]]; then
should be :
171 :        if [[ "$installbasedevel" =~ ^[Yy]$ ]] || [[ "$installbasedevel" =~ ^[Nn]$ ]]; then

and

The file /etc/hosts must be initialized with "$hostname"
maybe :
sed -i '/127.0.0.1/s/$/ '$hostname'/' /etc/hosts
sed -i '/::1/s/$/ '$hostname'/' /etc/hosts

nevertheless, great Job

Re: A bash archlinux install script

Attempt failed due to static IP required.

Query:  What is meant by "inet prefix" instead of IPaddress.  The script lists IP and an example.  Do I need to place a preamble on my IP address or put it in parens?

Why no reference to netmask?

Is static IP possible?

The script aborted at the IP step.

So far..looks good!
EDIT:Failed at this step:

IP (like 192.168.0.100/24): inet XXX.XX.XXX.XXX

Did I do wrong?

Thanks for your posting and soon I feel it will work!  The archiso begins with :

ip addr link set etho up....  That seems to be ifconfig data start-up.

Re: A bash archlinux install script

Second attempt also had the same abort condition.

Re: A bash archlinux install script

@lilsirecho: I suppose you are using a wrong (old) installmedia. pacstrap is only available on the recent arch images.

By the way, I think some code can be shortened, e.g.

   if [[ "$installbasedevel" =~ ^[Yy]$ ]] || [[ "$installbasedevel" =~ ^[Nn]$ ]]; then
to
   if [[ "$installbasedevel" =~ ^[YyNn]$ ]]; then

| alias CUTF='LANG=en_XX.UTF-8@POSIX ' |

Re: A bash archlinux install script

My install HDD is latest kernel .

I assume the pacstrap note would be there in an abort situation if the abort caused it not to complete.

The ifconfig note seems appropo for the failed install.  All else is normal list of failed steps IMHO.

Re: A bash archlinux install script

In retrospect, the usual archlinux install of network followed a pattern wherein only the statement:  eth0 meant dhcp.

The static IP arrangement had the following:

interface:eth0
ipaddr:
netmask:
Broadcast:
Gateway:
  These were listed in that order.

Noting the script listing of :  Network  ....with an option of : eth0, it would seem that this is where the data is needed.

The listing made in the script has gateway before broadcast and I think it applies only to the selected manual dhcp which doesn't require the full gamut of eth0 data.

The script may have to ask for dhcp or static eth0 at some point.  This would separate the entries and satisfy either.  IMHO

Re: A bash archlinux install script

Booted another archlinux OS device , upgraded to 3.4.9-1, and repeated the dev_install.sh .

Same failure at step 404.

It seems static IP means different things to different people!!!!  Step 404 seems to be a dhcp step imho.

EDIT:  It seems apparent to me that the following setup is paramount to eth0 static:

ip link set eth0 up
ip addr add xxx.xx.xxx.xxx/24 dev eth0
ip route  add default via xxx.xx.xxx.1
/etc/resolv.conf: nameservers

The dev being setup is eth0.

@lilsirecho

pacman -Ql arch-install-scripts
arch-install-scripts /usr/bin/pacstrap

Simply pacman in arch-install-scripts

Re: A bash archlinux install script

Think you need this

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/St … assignment

For setting up static ip address

Think ifconfig is not used by Arch any more
