A set of Ansible playbooks for provisioning Arch Linux. Inspired by pigmonkey/spark playbook.

This playbook now relies on archinstall for initial bootstrapping.

   Start iwctl prompt, then connect to WiFi with:

   station wlan0 connect <ssid>

2. Install archinstall.

   sudo pacman -Sy archinstall git

3. Run guided installer.

   python -m archinstall

Configure Arch Linux

1. Clone repository:

   git clone https://github.com/rkiyanchuk/ansible-arch-linux

2. After the reboot login into the new system, configure WiFi via nmtui, and run Ansible to install and configure full-featured Arch Linux:

   ansible-galaxy install -r requirements.yaml
   ansible-playbook --ask-become-pass configure.yaml

Post-setup

Add fingerprint authentication

sudo fprint-enroll ruslan
