c52309aca3 [EXPERTS ONLY] Now the installer offers the choice to create your own system on-the-fly, using the newly added Menus at:
'Desktop Selection' > 'Custom System'

TIP: If you are in need of a quick install, just directly select "[4] Start Installation" from the Main Menu.
 The installer is smart enough to auto-navigate through all the necessary stages for completion, saving you the time and effort.

 Added a new menu, offering installation of 'base-devel', (since now is optional) as an effort for a more minimal approach.

f4b81959c5 Revised Graphics Setup menu. Single Nvidia graphics setup now also supports the 'nvidia-open' driver for installation, where applicable. 'Keyboard Layout' selection menu now uses 'more' to display options. At the 'Optimize Pacman' stage, reflector now lists dynamically all Arch Linux mirror-hosting countries instead of being displayed hardcoded, also now you can select any country by country-code. In case of Nvidia proprietary graphics, now the installer automatically creates the 'Nvidia Hook' where applicable. Removed 'gnome-extra' from the Gnome desktop install. 2024-01-19 15:04:36 +00:00
