Arch: wifi-menu
boot ISO, type wifi-menu

b1tanarchy 2020-07-03 12:56:20 :
 * i used to boot on Arch Iso and run the wifi-menu command, in order to have my wifi setup and keep up with the installation afterwards. However, on the newly downloaded Arch Iso of the 1th of July, wifi-menu is not found as command.

Am i missing something or should i take another alternative installation path ?
 * nl6720 2020-07-03 13:20:50 :
 * Everything is as it should be.
 * archlinux-2020.07.01-x86_64.iso doesn't have netctl (and thus wifi-menu) anymore.
 * To connect to wireless networks you can use iwd.
 * Installation guide has been updated accordingly.

Clear Linux Cheat Sheet

 * Checking for updates:
 * sudo swupd update


 * Installing a new bundle (their version of a package group):
 * sudo swupd bundle-add bundlename


 * Bundles you’ll probably want for general tinkering:
 * dev-utils
 * tmux


 * Bundles you might want if you want a traditional GUI experience:
 * desktop (GNOME)
 * os-utils-gui (a basic xfce desktop)


 * Growing the hard disk (probably needed if you want to install GNOME on a VM):
 * grow it the VM-specific way:
 * install the storage-utils bundle
 * use parted and resize2fs to actually use the new space

/root /home /swap partitions

 * linux home root swap partition

"daily driver" desktop
My main desktop PC though, my personal PC boots CL primarily, ubuntu, RHEL then windows, respectively. Usually when I get done with a desktop installation I archive it on a qcow2 then throw it onto the hypervisor in the network closet, leave it running forever, and occasionally visit it over spice. I have three such CL VM’s. For example, I have particular laptop from System76 with two nvme’s and a sata ssd. I have CL, POP_OS! and Windows on one nvme; Ubuntu 20.10 on ZFS on the other nvme; and shared data on the SSD. I boot CL for most tasks, POP_OS! when I need NVIDIA support, Windows for standups, and Ubuntu whenever a new version is released and I want to try installing it. Whenever I install a new OS the first thing I do is create an ansible playbook and the record any tweaks I make in there, so that they can be used to provision the next one. I regularly discard them. https://community.clearlinux.org/t/advantages-and-disadvantages-and-clear-linux/5676 but still not all rpms works, some need extra setup or dependencies

 * ObitoUchiha: https://community.clearlinux.org/t/advantages-and-disadvantages-and-clear-linux/5676
 * Pros:
 * Fastest distro I ever used, based on regular usage.
 * cons:
 * App availability
 * Devs don’t care much about desktop version
 * There are some minor bugs everywhere, example, try to run Hp-device-manager, it will not work. I noticed it 6 month ago, it is still not fixed.
 * try to add gnome-online-account, google login screen will not load, because of some webkit issue
 * swupd package manager,
 * for example, I wanted to install meson to build a gtk-theme. Meson is not available as a standalone bundle, it is a part of dev-utils-dev, whose download size is around 500Mb to some GBs.
 * flatpaks just run fine.
 * If any app is not available either as a swupd bundle or flatpak, you can install rpms.
 * some developers provide universal linux builds, which just works on any distro e.g. pycharm
 * I still use clear linux, because whatever package I needed, I was able to install it here.

 * recommend :
 * recommend server ISO image installion, and then after installation:


 * sudo swupd bundle-add os-utils-gui lightdm # xfce4-desktop is part of os-utils-gui
 * sudo systemctl enable lightdm && sudo systemctl start lightdm
 * reboot, and you’re done
 * you can create a custom image yourself with clr-installer. Caveat is that you need to run ClearLinux to do so, but it’s certainly useful for people who want to make custom images
