Separate repo or other to BlackArch have direct accesss to hardware
I would like to install BlackArch alongside of ArchLinux. I know that BlackArch can easily break dependencies at ArchLinux. Is there a method to separate those two repos so I will have also direrect access to hardware from BlackArch apps? Especially I need direct access to WIFI card and dongles from BlackArch.

You are aware that blackarch is considered a separate distro ?
Adding their repos will lead to support threads by you getting closed.
If you want to do pen testing on archlinux , check https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/List_o … s/Security and install the applications you need.
Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.

If you really want to combine arch with blackarch, you could try to install blackarch in a chroot or systemd-nspawn container.

Does chroot or systemd-nspawn have access to hardware? I would like to have WIFI beeing able to catch packets directly by blackarch pen tools.

With chroot you have full access, with systemd-nspawn it depends on the namespace configuration you use.
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Chroot
Make sure to install and load all necessary kernel modules before entering the chroot, that is the one thing you can't/should not do from inside the chroot.
