Installing Arch Linux on Raspberry Pi
I want to install Arch Linux on my Raspberry Pi 5 server. Should I want until official Arch port to aarch64 will be available and put on my rpi Raspberry Pi OS or install temporarily unofficial ALARM (Arch Linux ARM)? Will I need to reinstall system when official Arch Linux aarch64 port appear if I had ALARM installed?

Re: Installing Arch Linux on Raspberry Pi
If you have time, wait for official support since it will happen eventually. But if you don't, go with ALARM. And you better put this post under https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewforum.php?id=35

Re: Installing Arch Linux on Raspberry Pi
Apparently there's a bunch of users on IRC that are working on Arch Linux ARM support, maybe react out to them and see if you can help.
Mod note: moving to other architectures.

Re: Installing Arch Linux on Raspberry Pi
That's for a separate distribution, not Arch.
