+# arch_installation
+My personal Arch installation notes
+
+  Suitable for systems with intel processors/integrated graphics
+  
+  "create file" means copy from repository
+
+- `loadkeys fi` - load finnish keyboard layout
+- `timedatectl set-ntp true` - NTP on
+- 
+- Create and mount the partitions.
+  - `systemd-boot` requires EFI to be mounted at `/boot`!!
+- Install system base with `pacstrap`:
+
+```pacstrap -i /mnt base linux-zen linux-firmware base-devel git vim man dosfstools ntfs-3g ufw tlp tlp-rdw gnome```
+
+- `genfstab -U /mnt >> /mnt/etc/fstab` - generate `fstab`
+  - If using bind mounts, remove `/mnt` from mountpoint!!
+- `arch-chroot /mnt` - Change root in to the new installation
+- `timedatectl set-timezone Europe/Helsinki` - set time zone
+- `hwclock --systohc` - syncronize HW clock with system clock
+- (optional) enable swapfile:
+  - `fallocate -l 8G /swapfile`
+  - `mkswap /swapfile`
+  - `swapon /swapfile`
+  - Add entry for swapfile to `fstab` <br> (`/swapfile none swap defaults 0 0`)
+- Locale generation:
+  - `echo "fi_FI.UTF-8 UTF-8" >> /etc/locale.gen` - set locale to generate
+  - `locale-gen`
+- `echo -e "LANG=fi_FI.UTF-8\nLC_COLLATE=C" >> /etc/locale.conf"` - set system default locale
+- `echo "KEYMAP=fi" >> /etc/vconsole.conf` - set persistent TTY keyboard layout
+- create `/etc/hostname` and `/etc/hosts`
+- modify `/etc/mkinitcpio.conf`, add `i915` kernel module and replace `udev`-hook with `systemd`-hook (file included)
+- recreate `initramfs`:
+  - `mkinitcpio -P`
+- Install `systemd-boot` bootloader:
+  - `bootctl install`
+  - add `/boot/loader/entries/arch.conf`
+  - set default entry in `/boot/loader/loader.conf`
+  - create pacman hook for updating systemd-boot: `/etc/pacman.d/hooks/100-systemd-boot.hook`
+  - run `bootctl update`
+- edit `/etc/sudoers` with `visudo`:
+  - uncomment `wheel` group
+- edit `/etc/pacman.conf`
+- set root password: `passwd`
+- create administrator user:
+  - `useradd -m -G wheel,storage,power,uucp,tty <user>`
+  - `passwd <user>`
+- enable `NetworkManager` and `gdm`
+
+- reboot
+
+- After rebooting, create file `/var/lib/gdm/.config/pulse/default.pa`
+  - Fixes gdm issue with bluetooth headset
+
+- Enable SSD periodic trimming:
+  `sudo systemctl enable --now fstrim.timer`
