# Arch Linux Archiso builder with zfs support



This repository contains a simple, free as in freedom, wrapper to automate the steps mentioned in the [arch linux wiki](https://wiki.archlinux.org) for the [zfs installation](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/ZFS#Installation) and the [archios package installation](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Archiso#Installing_packages).



The current changelog can be found [here](CHANGELOG.md).



All you need to do is to execute the [build.sh](https://github.com/stevleibelt/arch-linux-live-cd-iso-with-zfs/blob/master/build.sh).



You can download a build iso to use [here](https://archzfs.leibelt.de/).



All needed packages where installed automatically. The build script will output the path to the created iso file.



At the end, you only need to dd the iso to your favorit usb drive, use [venotoy](https://www.ventoy.net) or burn it on an optical disk.

## Howto



### Initial setup



```bash

# ref: https://github.com/archzfs/archzfs/wiki#using-the-archzfs-repository

sudo pacman-key -r DDF7DB817396A49B2A2723F7403BD972F75D9D76

sudo pacman-key --lsign-key DDF7DB817396A49B2A2723F7403BD972F75D9D76

```



### Regular buildings



```bash

####

#build an iso

####

#flags

#   -f|--force

#   -d|--dry-run

#   -h|--help

#   -r|--repo-index []

#       if you just use -r, default of >>last<< is used

#       @see: https://archive.archlinux.org/repos/

#   -u|--use-dkms

#   -v|--verbose

####

# tired of repeating the same flags again and again?

#

# optional configuration file is supported and saves your keystrokes

# cp configuration/build.sh.dist configuration/build.sh

# adapt file configuration/build.sh

####

./build.sh



#test run an existing iso

./run_iso.sh []



#upload the iso

./upload_iso.sh []

```



### Run super-linter locally



```bash

# ref: https://github.com/super-linter/super-linter#run-using-a-container-runtime-engine

#   assuming that . is the path to the local code base

docker run -e LOG_LEVEL=DEBUG -e RUN_LOCAL=true -v .:/tmp/lint ghcr.io/super-linter/super-linter:latest

```

Following issues are not reproducable on all my machines.
