archstrap
A stupid simple BASH script to bootstrap a minimal Arch Linux installer environment from other Linux distributions. Essentially archstrap will create a base Arch Linux system with working pacman, archstrap, genfstab, etc, at specifed mountpoint. archstrap makes installing Arch Linux from any Linux distribution easy; After archstrap execution, simply follow the ArchWiki installation guide starting at disk partitioning
Acquisition
git clone https://github.com/wick3dr0se/archstrap; cd "${_##*/}"
Execution
./archstrap [mountpoint] [output_name]
Tips
archstrap must be executed as superuser
archstrap verifies the gpg signature of the global mirror it uses. if it fails keys may need to be manually received as superuser
sudo gpg --receive-key <KEY>
