Install Arch like a boss: Archinstall script

Installation and usage:
To launch archinstall, start by updating archinstall to ensure you're using the most recent version. This is important because, for example, at the time these lines are written, the Arch Linux ISO version from 01/03/2024 tries to install the "plasma-wayland" package, which has been nonexistent since the release of Plasma 6, leading to an error that crashes archinstall. This issue has been fixed in newer versions of archinstall, so updating before starting the installation is essential.

Update by cloning the git repository:

pacman -S git
git clone https://github.com/archlinux/archinstall.git
cd archinstall
python -m archinstall

Once archinstall is updated, you can launch it with the following command:

archinstall

Arch Linux Script

sudo pacman -S --needed git base-devel && git clone https://github.com/Cardiacman13/Architect.git ~/Architect && cd ~/Architect && chmod +x ./architect.sh && ./architect.sh
