dotfiles

My personal Arch Linux dotfiles with an install script.

Installation

1 - Install Arch

Install using archinstall and choose the desktop profile with i3-wm. Select the "en_US.UTF-8" and "nl_NL.UTF-8" locales. Also make sure you don't create a seperate partition for /home (this may lead to storage problems with many pacman packages and docker images).

2 - Execute the install script

(optional) update pacman config with sudo vim /etc/pacman.conf:

  • Uncomment Color
  • Uncomment ParallelDownloads = 5
  • Add ILoveCandy

Get and run the install script (WARNING: this will delete the .config folder!)

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MikeMoolenaar/dotfiles/main/install.sh
chmod +x install.sh
bash install.sh

Post-install steps

  • Install the user.js settings file for Firefox (Firefox has to be started at least once before this works):
ln -s ~/.config/firefox/user.js ~/.mozilla/firefox/*default-release
