Manjaro ARM Installer

Scripts for installing Manjaro ARM directly to SD/eMMC cards or USB sticks without the need for images.

This script is "interactive". Meaning that it asks you questions when run to customize your install. Like username, password etc.

Dependencies (Arch package names):

  • bash
  • wget
  • git
  • systemd
  • dialog
  • parted
  • libarchive
  • binfmt-qemu-static
  • openssl
  • gawk
  • dosfstools
  • polkit
  • btrfs-progs (for btrfs filesystem support)
  • f2fs-tools (for f2fs filesystem support)
  • cryptsetup (for encryption support)

Installing and using from Manjaro (x64 and ARM) repositories:

To use this script, please make sure that the following is correct:

  • An SD/eMMC card with at least 8 GB storage is plugged in, but not mounted. This Script will remove everything on it.
  • That your user account has sudo rights.

Then install the manjaro-arm-installer package with:

sudo pacman -Syu manjaro-arm-installer

Then reboot or run sudo systemctl restart systemd-binfmt. You can now launch the installer with:

sudo bash manjaro-arm-installer

Installing and using from gitlab:

To use this script, please make sure that the following is correct:

  • An SD/eMMC card or USB stick with at least 8 GB storage is plugged in, but not mounted. This Script will remove everything on it.
  • That your user account has sudo rights.
  • That you have rebooted or restarted the binfmt service with sudo systemctl restart systemd-binfmt.

Then use this to get it:

git clone https://gitlab.manjaro.org/manjaro-arm/applications/manjaro-arm-installer
cd manjaro-arm-installer
chmod +x manjaro-arm-installer
sudo bash ./manjaro-arm-installer

Known Issues:

  • Because dialog is weird, the script needs to be run in bash.
