A minimal installer - Feedback appreciated

There is a minimalist installer available at github - https://github.com/corebob/archibald

Anyone who wants a simple installation procedure to set up a bare bone archlinux is welcome to give it a try.

At this point it only supports GPT and grub2.

To run it, issue the following commands from the latest live iso:

# curl https://raw.github.com/corebob/archibald/master/kickstart > kickstart
# bash kickstart

Note that it is not supposed to be a full-fledged installer so I won't add a lot more features to it, but I would appreciate feedback if something doesn't work as expected

Cheers!

i'm not a moderator, but i think the right section for this thread is "Community Contributions" or "Programming & Scripting"
