# Quick install Arch Linux on Raspberry Pi
**1. Download this repository**
```

```


**2. Set the permissions**
```
chmod +x setup_sdcard.sh && chmod +x write_image.sh
```


**3. Run scripts**
```
./setup_sdcard.sh && ./write_image.sh
```
* `` - path to SD Card
* `` - number of version Raspberry Pi or path to image Arch Linux

# Detailed manual

## First step
Download this repository

```
git clone https://github.com/art1415926535/Raspberry-Pi-scripts.git
cd Raspberry-Pi-scripts
```

## Setup Arch Linux on the SD card

### 1. Set the permissions
Make setup_sdcard.sh and write_image.sh executable:

`chmod +x setup_sdcard.sh && chmod +x write_image.sh`
* setup_sdcard.sh - formate the SD card with fdisk and create filesystems.
* write_image.sh - download the image from the website (if you want) and write the files onto the SD Card.

### 2. Run setup the SD card
`./setup_sdcard.sh /dev/mmcblk0`


Wait message:

`Done!
To continue run write_image.sh`

### 3 Run download and write image onto the SD Card

If you already downloaded image go to step 3.1.

* `./write_image.sh 1` - for Raspberry Pi 1

* `./write_image.sh 2` - for Raspberry Pi 2

If directory already contain image you you will get a question:

`Re-download the image from the website [yes/no]?`

After write image onto the SD Card go to step 4.

### 3.1 For already downloaded image
`./write_image.sh `

### 4. Profit!!!

Use the serial console or SSH to the IP address given to the board by your router.

Login as the default user `alarm` with the password `alarm`.
The default `root` password is `root`.
