Install and configure my arch

 

1. Install the system. Install with a archlinux-200908.iso disc, choose to install from a local disc, instead of a network, disk partitions use the default (detailed partitioning later)

 

2. When grub is installed on the disk, a prompt will be displayed to modify the configuration file. I add VGA = 791 to the kernel and initrd fields (the Resolution displayed when the terminal is started is 1024x768x16)

 

3. modify the configuration file. Modify locale = "en_us.utf8" in the/etc/rc. conf file to locale = "zh_cn.utf8"; comment out the default en_US.UTF-8 and en_us in the/etc/locale. gen file,

At the same time remove the notes of zh_cn.gb18030, zh_cn.gbk, zh_CN.UTF-8, zh_cn.gb2312, and re-run the locale-gen command

 

4. edit/etc/Pacman. d/hosts list and add the following source

Server = http://mirrors.163.com/archlinux/#repo/ OS /i686

 

5. Execute the command Pacman-sy Pacman # update the local repository list and update Pacman

At this time, Chinese characters are displayed on our terminal, but Chinese characters are all square characters. This is because we have set the environment language to zh_cn.utf8.

To display the prompt information normally, you can use export lang = en_us.utf8.

 

6. Install SSH.

Pacman-s OpenSSH

 

7. Install Xorg

Pacman-s Xorg

Pacman-s Hal # Hal is required for Xorg startup

Modify/etc/rc. conf and add Hal startup to daemons = (syslog-NG network netfs crond), and then change it to daemons = (syslog-NG network netfs crond Hal)

Of course, you can also add sshd and other startup services here. These services will be automatically started in sequence when the system starts.

Use/etc/rc. d/hal start to start Hal and run startx to test whether X can be started normally.

Use CTRL + ALT + backspace to kill X and return to the terminal

Pacman-ss nvidia # Find NVIDIA-related graphics card drivers

 

8. Install Vim

Pacman-s Vim

 

9. Install the font set

Pacman-s TTF-MS-Fonts

Pacman-s TTF-dejavu

Pacman-s TTF-bitstream-Vera

Pacman-s wqy-zenhei

Pacman-s wqy-bitmapfont

 

10. Install Rox-filer, openbox, obconf, obmenu, GTK-chtheme, and slim.

Pacman-s Rox-filer

Pacman-s openbox

Pacman-s openbox-themes

Pacman-s obconf

Pacman-s obmenu

============================================================ ========

Mkdir-P ~ /. Config/openbox/

CP/etc/xdg/openbox/rc. xml ~ /. Config/openbox/

CP/etc/xdg/openbox/menu. xml ~ /. Config/openbox/

-------------------------------------------------

Edit/root/. bashrc and add the following line

Alias Vi = 'vim'

Export PS1 = "[/u @/h/W] #"

-------------------------------------------------

The slim topic file is in/usr/share/slim/themes, and the configuration file is/etc/slim. conf.

Modify the/etc/inittab and set the startup level to 5. The default logon manager is slim.
