Same question as about a year ago: Is there still some life in the project? The silence starts to become deafening.

Well, I suggest you check out this list of packages sorted by update date - the packages are still being maintained, with a kernel update today, for example. Yes, updates to the installer might be nice, and the no-updates-on-the-front-page thing might make some people worry, but as far as I can tell, everything is great behind the scenes, at least in terms of packages.

This is a bug in systemd #11765 machinectl saying "Invalid machine name" with underscores

replacing $(unman -m) with a name works

$ systemd-nspawn --capability=CAP_MKNOD --register=no -M archboot -D x86_64_chroot

Thank you for your help Da!vid.
Now the next problem:when I generate the images as per wiki, where are they placed?
Can't find any .iso or.img.
They are generated:when I do "archboot-x86_64-iso.sh, both -t and -g the whole process passes in the console, but I do not find any iso or image.
Or are there other steps to do?

Here we go again, new ISO released. Reflects all recent changes to [core] repository.
Network installation routine is now stripped down to minimum boot requirements.
Have fun.

ArchBoot saved my tablet! Many thanks to those involved!

I bought the tablet specifically for Arch Linux, but when I received it I found that the tablet has UEFI 32Bits and 64Bits processor.

This way with ArchBoot I started normally and then gave alt + F2 and performed the installation normally as in the traditional ISO.
