Arch Linux

This page is the starting point for all installation and configuration documentation of my Arch Linux setup. There’s already some great documentation regarding Arch Linux, so please consult that for background information. My focus will be on the bare minimum of necessities to achieve a specific goal and therefor:

The number of explicitly installed packages will be kept to a minimum

since base is now a metapackage instead of a group[1], all required top-level packages (except linux) are now implicit dependencies of base
For filling configuration files, the command tee is used instead of a command line editor (like vi or nano), mostly because:
- it’s part of package coreutils which is already pulled in by mandatory packages like linux and systemd
- to execute the command using tee, it can be copied on the command line or in scripts
- the part of the command between the EOF tags (the here document) can still be copied into an editor to your taste
  
  to prevent expansion of variables, tags of those here documents can be quoted like 'EOF'
