System Configuration

1. Generate fstab:

   mkdir -p /mnt/etc/
   for i in ${DISK}; do
      echo UUID=$(blkid -s UUID -o value ${i}-part1) /boot/efis/${i##*/}-part1 vfat \
      umask=0022,fmask=0022,dmask=0022 0 1 >> /mnt/etc/fstab
   done
   echo $(echo $DISK | cut -f1 -d\ )-part1 /boot/efi vfat \
      noauto,umask=0022,fmask=0022,dmask=0022 0 1 >> /mnt/etc/fstab
   

2. Configure mkinitcpio:

   mv /mnt/etc/mkinitcpio.conf /mnt/etc/mkinitcpio.conf.original
   tee /mnt/etc/mkinitcpio.conf <<EOF
   HOOKS=(base udev autodetect modconf block keyboard zfs filesystems)
   EOF
   

3. Enable internet time synchronisation:

   hwclock --systohc
   systemctl enable systemd-timesyncd --root=/mnt
   

4. Set locale, keymap, timezone, hostname and root password:

   rm -f /mnt/etc/localtime
   systemd-firstboot --root=/mnt --prompt --force
   

5. Generate host id:

   zgenhostid -f -o /mnt/etc/hostid
   

6. Enable ZFS services:

   systemctl enable zfs-import-scan.service zfs-mount zfs-import.target zfs-zed zfs.target --root=/mnt
   

7. Add archzfs repo:

   curl -L https://archzfs.com/archzfs.gpg |  pacman-key -a - --gpgdir /mnt/etc/pacman.d/gnupg
   pacman-key --lsign-key --gpgdir /mnt/etc/pacman.d/gnupg $(curl -L https://git.io/JsfVS)
   curl -L https://git.io/Jsfw2 > /mnt/etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist-archzfs
   
   tee -a /mnt/etc/pacman.conf <<- 'EOF'
   
   #[archzfs-testing]
   #Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist-archzfs
   
   [archzfs]
   Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist-archzfs
   EOF
   

8. Chroot:

   history -w /mnt/home/sys-install-pre-chroot.txt
   arch-chroot /mnt /usr/bin/env DISK="$DISK" bash
   

9. Generate locales:

   echo "en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8" >> /etc/locale.gen
   locale-gen
