This is a very basic configuration for newly installed arch linux.


0. Font configuration: * optional step, in case in which your font is too small * if you have internet connection download terminus font with: curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mikbuch/mikbuch.github.io/master/linux/files_linux/arch_config/ter-u32b.psf.gz --output /usr/share/kbd/consolefonts/ter-u32b.psf.gz
* use command: setfont /usr/share/kbd/consolefonts/ter-u32b.psf.gz * create /etc/vconsole.conf containing settings with the following command: echo 'FONT=ter-u32b.psf.gz' >> /etc/vconsole.conf 1. Bash confuguration:
* if you have internet connection dowload configuration files:
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mikbuch/mikbuch.github.io/master/linux/files_linux/arch_config/.bash_profile --output ~/.bash_profile
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mikbuch/mikbuch.github.io/master/linux/files_linux/arch_config/.bashrc --output ~/.bashrc
* note: .bash_profile is run at startup and it directs to .bashrc
* if you don't have internet create ad hoc bash config files:
echo [[ -f ~/.bashrc ]] && . ~/.bashrc >> ~/.bash_profile
echo l='ls -l --color=auto' >> ~/.bashrc

2. Network configuration:
* if you have wired connection it should be all set up
* wireless connection:
wpa_supplicant
wifi-menu -o
ntctl start /etc/netctl/interface
e.g. netctl start wlp1s0-I241WS-F4A54DF6
ntctl enable /etc/netctl/interface
