[easy-arch](https://github.com/classy-giraffe/easy-arch) is a **script** made in order to boostrap a basic **Arch Linux** environment with **snapshots** and **encryption** by using a fully automated process.

The **partitions layout** is pretty straightforward, it's inspired by [this section](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dm-crypt/Encrypting_an_entire_system#Btrfs_subvolumes_with_swap) of the Arch Wiki. As you can see there's just a couple of partitions:
1. A **FAT32**, 512MiB sized, mounted at `/boot` for the ESP.
2. A **LUKS encrypted container**, which takes the rest of the disk mounted at `/` for the rootfs.

| Subvolume Number | Subvolume Name | Mountpoint |
|------------------|----------------|------------------|
| 1 | @ | / |
| 2 | @home | /home |
| 3 | @snapshots | /.snapshots |
| 4 | @var_log | /var/log |
| 5 | @swap | /swap (optional) |

The **BTRFS subvolumes layout** follows the traditional and suggested layout used by **Snapper**, you can find it [here](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Snapper#Suggested_filesystem_layout). I only added a swap subvolume in case you need a swapfile, but it's totally optional. You'll be asked if you want it or not during the script execution. Here's a brief explanation of the **BTRFS layout** I chose:

1. `@` mounted as `/`.
2. `@home` mounted as `/home`.
3. `@snapshots` mounted as `/.snapshots`.
4. `@var_log` mounted as `/var/log`.
5. `@swap` mounted as `/swap` (_optional_).

### How does it work?
Docs.
2021-02-01 07:24:31 -05:00
1. Download an Arch Linux ISO from [here](https://archlinux.org/download/)
2. Flash the ISO onto an [USB Flash Drive](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/USB_flash_installation_medium).
3. Boot the live environment.
4. Set the keyboard layout by using `loadkeys`.
5. Connect to the internet.
6. Run this `sh <(curl -sL u.nu/ws5e2)`.
