Known Issues
Waiting for time sync #2144
systemd-timesyncd.service
might work but most often you need to configure /etc/systemd/timesyncd.conf
to match your network design.Note
If you know your time is correct on the machine, you can run archinstall --skip-ntp
to ignore time sync.
Missing Nvidia Proprietary Driver #2002
A common workaround is to install the package linux-headers and nvidia-dkms
ARM, 32bit and other CPU types error out #1686, #2185
Keyring is out of date #2213
archinstall
run might operate on a old keyring despite there being an update service for this.archinstall
.Note
The issue can happen on new ISO’s too even as little as a few days after release, as some keys might expire right after the keyring is “burnt in” to the ISO.
Note
Another common issue relating to the network not being configured, is that time might not be set correctly - resulting in the keyring not being able to update. See Waiting for time sync #2144.
AUR packages
archinstall
.Note
But in spirit of giving the community options, archinstall
supports Python Plugins, which means you can run archinstall --plugin <url>
and source an AUR plugin.
torxed/archinstall-aur is a reference implementation for plugins:
# archinstall --plugin https://archlinux.life/aur-plugin
phisch/archinstall-aur is another alternative:
# archinstall --plugin https://raw.githubusercontent.com/phisch/archinstall-aur/master/archinstall-aur.py
Warning
This will allow for unsupported usage of AUR during installation.
