\n-------------------------------------
\n
\nBefore start, is best to configure your keyboard.
\nUse the next command to list available keymap :
\nlocalectl list-keymaps
\n

\nTo reboot, use the next command :
\nreboot"

learndiskpart="Disk Partitions.
\n----------------
\n
\nTo install Arch Linux, you need to partion your disk.
\nIt has many schemas to format a drive (See the doc for more).
\n
\nIf you don't know how to partion your disk, you can auto partition with dos, gpt or gpt+efi table :
\n - dos     : recommanded for old computer
\n - gpt     : for disk larger than 2Tb
\n - gpt+efi : for EFI computer
"

learndiskpartautodos="Auto partition dos.
\n-------------------
\n
\nAuto partition make this next partitions :
\n - boot 512Mb (linux type) (bootable flag)
\n - swap RAM Size (swap type)
\n - root Free Space (linux type)
"

learndiskpartautogpt="Auto partition gpt.
\n-------------------
\n
\nAuto partition make this next partitions :
\n - bios 31Mb (BIOS boot type)
\n - boot 512Mb (linux type)

\n------------------------
\n
\ncgdisk is primary maked to edit gpt disk.
\n
\nTo enum available drives, use the next command :

\n - ext4     : mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdX
\n
\nYou need to learn which format is best for you.
\next2 is a good choice."

\nbtrfs is a good choice because it work fine with snapper for snapshot (It's a good recovery method)."

learnmountparts="Mount partitions.
\n-----------------
\n
\nTo install Arch Linux, you need to mount selected partitions.
\n
\nFirst mount root device in /mnt :
\nmount /dev/sdX /mnt
\n
\nMake child directories :
\nmkdir /mnt/{boot,home}
\n
\nIf you have a boot partition, mount it in /mnt/boot :
\nmount /dev/sdX /mtn/boot
\n
\nIf you have a swap partition, enable it :
\nswapon /dev/sdX
\n
\nIf you have a home partition, mount it in /mnt/home :
\nmount /dev/sdX /mnt/home"

learninstallbase="Install base packages.
\n----------------------
\n
\nTo install Arch Linux just use the next command :

\n
\nWhen operation on new install is terminated, you need to unmount partitions in /mnt.
\nUse the next command :
\numount -R /mnt
\n
\nif you have selected a swap partition, disable it with the next command :
\nswapoff /dev/sdX"

\n
\nDon't miss to uncomment your locale in /mnt/etc/locale.gen
\nsed -i '/en_US.UTF-8/s/^#//g' /mnt/etc/locale.gen

\nFor this, Grub is a great bootloader.
\n
\nFirstly install grub package
\nFor this, use the next command :
\npacstrap /mnt grub
\n
\nTo make configuration, you need to chroot the new installation and call the next commands :
\narch-chroot /mnt
\ngrub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

\n-------------------
\n
\nBefore reboot, you need to make bootable your drive.
\n

\ngrub-install --recheck /dev/sdX
\n\nand for EFI install :
\ngrub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=/boot --recheck /dev/sdX
\n\nand if you make a USB key, you can choose BIOS+EFI but you need the correct partitions.
\nexit"

\n-------------
\n
\nWhen boot the new install, dhcpcd is not enabled by default.
