@onfy you're supposed to create a partition while installing like every other OS https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Installation_guide#Partition_the_disks
@noiob I've only manually installed DOS before that way, I know DOS much better than Linux and I still needed a guide. I'd be too afraid of messing something up and fscking a production OS.
@onfy fwiw the archwiki guide is really thorough, I've used it multiple times and haven't run into any real problems
you gotta be careful when creating your partitions but that's the case with every installer
@noiob I mean, one of the few things the Raspberry Pi actually has going for it by now, I think, it that normally an OS is just distributed as an image file you can just write to an SD card and boot it right away... What's the point of needing to create a file system?
@onfy https://archlinuxarm.org have fun!
@noiob No ISOs there but uh, thanks.
@noiob Can't say I've found a Raspberry Pi Arch ISO...
