Ermanno's videos on Arch has become like a library for me. Every time I install or test something new I go here to find instructions and inspiration. I hope these videos are backed up securely, should YT one day remove the content.
Ermanno I searched the wiki and UA-cam I found this and it worked. Grub-install - - target=x86_64-efi - - bootloader-id=grub - - efi-directory=/boot/efi Leigh Horton
Great! That’s the same command on the video, difference is it’s installed in /boot/efi instead of /boot. In some PC’s it can happened. Glad it worked out.
@@eflinux yes it's a brand new amd ryzen 5 and a new ssd. With aorus b450 motherboard. I even checked the bios settings. Just to add Ubuntu was slow Arco good but nowhere near as fast as arch. I am yet to installl DE. But have installed qtile. Perhaps I should follow and install i3. Leigh Horton However it will have to wait for now.
Super! Thanks. HOOKS=(base udev autodetect keyboard keymap modconf block encrypt lvm2 filesystems keyboard fsck) - double-entered "keyboard" will not result in errors ? Or is it not important ?
Hi, thanks for your video, I hope you made more video of Arch installation with btrfs :) For now i have a question about wireless_tools, I've seen in the arch wiki this tools is deprecated in favor of iw, what did you think about it? PS: why is necessary to have two keyboard option in the hook? thanks in advance
I'll have to decide what to do with that package. I've seen some PC's won't work without it, but I'll look into it. As for the keyboard hook, I missed that as I am so used to type them always, but it doesn't make a difference. The system works fine anyway, however you just need it once.
I can't run any commands because systemd isn't running on my Arch chroot... I try using systemd-nspawn -bD but it asks for a password. Then I try using systemd-nspawn -D to set the password and I still cannot log in. Any idea what is going on here? Edit: I added pts/0 above the console line in /mnt/etc/securetty and the login worked when using systemd-nspawn -bD. Hope this helps somebody.
Heyy Ermanno. Can you help me ? I tried to follow the video and everything worked fine. However now I want to expand my home directory using another disk. Should I encrypt this disk first, after that mount this disk and make a pv ?

Thanks Ben! No worries, they are. I have also some new projects in store for next year. Let's see :)
but old videos are useless anyway cause Arch changes over time ...

I see, well congratulations on your new PC :)
Thanks once again Ermanno for a great instructional presentation!
Thanks again Jake for the feedback :)
Best video. Always coming back to this to install!
Glad it helped!
Great video!
Thanks!
Great video. Thanks alot. Greetings from Rapperswil SG :)
Why did you use pacman -Syyy at 2:31? Three Ys are not documented in the manual.
It forces the resync, but I use it way too much... I need to stop that :)
EF - Tech Made Simple According to the manual, two Ys should be sufficient to force resync. Anyway, thanks for a great video! 😀
Old habit, thanks for pointing this out and for the feedback!
Super! Thanks.
HOOKS=(base udev autodetect keyboard keymap modconf block encrypt lvm2 filesystems keyboard fsck) - double-entered "keyboard" will not result in errors ? Or is it not important ?
Ha! I missed that :) The system boots fine anyway, but you can definitely delete one. Thanks for pointing this out!
Thank you very much. You helped me a lot.

Hello) Thanks for your videos. They're helpful. What about network printer installation?
Hi thanks! Actually that should work out of the box. If not you can try in the browser localhost:631 and configure from there :)

At about 4:28 you put in cryptsetup luksformat /dev/the name of your partition but i keep getting a (cryptsetup, action unkown) error
Probably the module is not loaded. Type modprobe dm_crypt and try again.
@@eflinux thanks that fixed it, and to thank i just put this message on like 3 minutes ago 😀
My pleasure!
I have a question: Is it possible to install Arch with LVM on LUKS usng BIOS with GPT, or is it only possible with UEFI?
You definitely can. You just need to create a bootable boot partition.
@@eflinux Thank you for the quick answear. I'll try to do that.
No problem! Eventually try it out in a VM first.
Heyy Ermanno. Can you help me ? I tried to follow the video and everything worked fine.

Please do a video on lvm snapshots.
I will :)
Hi thanks for this education but i have a question :
If we used ssd, what need to do to get best performance ?
Make sure the fstrim timer is active.
@@eflinux thank you very much
Are you booting from external device?
Through SSH.
Systemctl enable org.cups.cupsd
Failed to enable unit, unit org.cups.cupsd.service does not exist.
Wut?
Cups is installed.
It had been updated to just cups.service.
