An Arch-derived operating system for Jeffrey's laptop.
Quickstart:
sudo rm -rf archlive/out archlive/work ; ./build.sh
sudo dd if=archlive/out/azure-os-baseline-2020.11.26-x86_64.iso of=/dev/sda status=progress oflag=sync bs=4MThere are hundreds of people who have invested in forking arch or building their own install scripts for their business domain or personal use cases.
I have found that my systems get cluttered pretty quickly and other OSes (manjaro) take too much control away to be worth their nice features and quick deployments.
This project exists for one person (me!) to go from new hardware -> uefi+linx+systemd+all-my-config in about 15 minutes. I keep bootable backups that are to this day used to fire up a 3 year old copy of firefox when I need a password I forgot about.
If you're interested in the same I can link you to the official docs:
