Arch Linux Image Builder for GCE

Hi everyone,

I am new to the Google Cloud Platform and I was wondering how to create an Arch VM instance yesterday.

I tried jeremyje's previous post, but the scripts and some API are outdated.

Therefore, I forked the project and simplified the process of building an Arch image:
https://github.com/kyechou/compute-arch … ge-builder

The scripts should be able to run on any current Arch Linux.
It will build a 10G Arch image locally and upload the compressed tarball to the specified Google Storage Bucket.

It automatically adds a user with the username being the user and the password being "password".
You can change the default configuration in vmscript-build-arch.sh.
