# Arch-Dev-VM
This repo contains scripts to install a full Archlinux System with GNOME complete with the following additional packages:
- VSCodium (with custom settings)
- GDM (Gnome Display Manager)
- pip (optional)
- node & npm (optional)
- rustup (optional)
- neovim & nano
You also get a fully configured Sudo user
# IMPORTANT: PLEASE ONLY INSTALL ON A VM OR ON A DEVICE WITH NO ADDITIONAL DATA ON IT YOU'D LIKE TO KEEP
# Running
First, [download](https://archlinux.org/download/) an ArchLinux ISO (scroll down to mirrors).
Then, set up a VM using for example VMWare Workstation Player 16
On a live-booted archlinux installer, run the following commands (read on below as well!):
```
pacman -Sy git
git clone https://github.com/simplePCBuilding/arch-dev-vm
cd arch-dev-vm
./install.sh
```
and follow the on-screen prompts.
If the keyboard layout isn't correct run the following commands:
```
ls /usr/share/kbd/keymaps/**/*.map.gz
loadkeys [IDENTIFIER HERE (find it in the output above), usually of form de_CH-latin1, refer to blog for more instructions]
```
**NOTE: The keyboard layout by default is en_US-latin1**
## Editing the sudoers file
In the sudoers file, you need to uncomment the 15th line from the botton, just below the line that says
"## Uncomment to allow members of group wheel to execute any command"
Remove the # in the subsequent line and hit Ctrl + S, then Ctrl + X. This will allow all members
of the user group "wheel" to execute any command.
## Post install
After install, you might want to install an AUR-Helper, like yay (yet another yogurt). Run the following commands after rebooting your system.
```
cd /tmp
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/yay.git
cd yay
makepkg -si
```
