ansible-arch-linux

A set of Ansible playbooks for provisioning Arch Linux.

Inspired by pigmonkey/spark playbook.

How to run

Create bootable media

1. Download and verify latest ArchLinux ISO:

   make iso

2. Write the ISO image to a USB flash drive:

   dd bs=4M if=archlinux-$VERSION-dual.iso of=/dev/sdX status=progress && sync

Install OS

1. Boot into ArchLinux Live CD and connect to the Internet.

   Start iwctl prompt, then connect to WiFi with:

   station wlan0 connect <ssid>

2. Remount root partition to increase disk space for the installation.

   mount -o remount,size=1G /run/archiso/cowspace

3. Install Git and Ansible:

   pacman -Sy git ansible

4. Download and decompress playbook from GitHub:

   git clone https://github.com/rkiyanchuk/ansible-arch-linux
   cd ansible-arch-linux

5. Install dependent roles and run Ansible to provision base system:

   ansible-playbook install.yml

6. After the reboot login into the new system, configure WiFi via nmtui, and run Ansible to install and configure full-featured Arch Linux:

   ansible-galaxy install kewlfft.aur
   ansible-playbook --ask-become-pass configure.yml

Post-setup

Add fingerprint authentication

sudo fprint-enroll ruslan
