Additional Packages
Hello All;
during install is there a way to bring up a terminal after packages are installed, in order to install whatever additional packages could be used by whatever.xz. when i tried ctrl+alt+F3, and logged in i was brought to the /arch/setup paragraph again.
maybe just dont be lazy and grab a pen:p

Re: Additional Packages
There is the option to select packages in the installer, or as you noted you can switch to another tty. I'm not sure why the setup paragraph would get in your way, that is just an echoing on instructions to run the installer but you are in a regular bash shell.

Re: Additional Packages
IMO the only thing you should do during install is install. Get a core system up and running, and handle everything else post-install.
