New features

  • Now supports configuring wifi by copying the current ISO/live-medium iwd configuration if one was set up before the installer was started #82
  • man pages can now be built using cd docs/ && make man. This has two additional dependencies:
    • python-sphinx
    • python-spinx_rtd_theme
  • systemd-networkd, systemd-resolved and iwd are now dynamically installed depending on which network configuration the user chooses to install (or opt out from). #82 (Thanks to @grazzolini for correcting some of my logic and making this one work perfectly)
  • KDE now has a Wayland profile called kde-wayland. (Thank you @AdvaithM for this development)
  • Archinstall now supports the filesystem XFS (Added by @AdvaithM)
  • Archinstall now supports the filesystem F2FS (Added by @reid) #90
  • Logging is now done in /var/log/archinstall/install.log and will be mirrored between the ISO and the install medium upon archinstall.Installer().__exit__. #56
  • New function to detect if UEFI or BIOS is booted via archinstall.hasUEFI() #44 #96
  • New function to detect if WiFi exists on a hardware level via archinstall.hasWifi() #44 #82 #96
  • New function to detect if a certain graphics card exists on a hardware level via archinstall.hasNvidiaGraphics(), archinstall.hasAmdGraphics(), archinstall.hasIntelGraphics() #44 #96

Bugs and fixes

  • Fixed docs (mainly links f48e5d5 and layout for manpages) #78
  • Fixed KDE which relied on xorg-xinit instead of sddm #83 (Shoutout to @AdvaithM for this one)
  • Some spelling issues 627deb7 (Shoutout to @J-James for that one, I know it's minor but worth it)
  • Corrected the file format labling of archinstall.Partition() for ext4 partitions. #88 (Spotted by u/parkerlreed on reddit starting out as a light joke, turns into bug)
  • terminus-font-otb changed upstream to just terminus-font in awesome-profile. 73191b9
  • The awesome-profile has been slimmed a bit further to remove unnecessary packages. 9a94a63
  • Logging in general have been looked over, some more details have been added as well as output fixed #94
  • PKGBUILD's have moved location in #97
  • Fixed proper raise RequirementError in guided installer when required steps were skipped #86

Honorable mentions:

  • (pre-release feature) archinstall.wirelessScan(interface) will initiate a wireless scan using iwctl
  • (pre-release feature) archinstall.getWirelessNetworks(interface) will retrieve available wifi networks in the area using iwctl
    Both these two functions will later be converted into dbus messages/events mentioned in #82
