NILFS on clean installation

Hello to everybody,

Is there a way to perform a clean installation of Arch x86_64 from CD with NILFS ?

So far, I tried the following:

- Booted from an Arch CD x86_64
- Started the ethernet adapter and updated the packages with

Pacman -Syu

- Installed NILFS2 with:

Pacman -S nilfs

- Run fdisk in order to partition the SSD with the following scheme:
         /dev/sda1 -> (Bootable)  FS: linux
         /dev/sda2 -> swap
         /dev/sda3 -> FS: linux
         /dev/sda4 -> FS: linux
-run /arch/setup, but when trying to set the mount points option (Configure Disk), the system is unable to verify that the hard drive is partitioned.

Please advise if it is feasible to perform such an installation and if yes, how.

Thanks in advance

Re: NILFS on clean installation

Maybe install on ext3.
Then copy the 'files' over to an external drive.
Then for mat that partition nilfs
Then copy the files back over.
Maybe edit a few files.
