<h2>Headless Arch Install</h2>
<h3>2025-03-21</h3>
<h4>I have a micro pc I'd like to use as a web server</h4> 
<p>It doesn't have a screen so I'll need to do a headless installation</p>
<p>I found some simple instructions here: <a href="https://tarneo.fr/posts/arch_headless/">https://tarneo.fr/posts/arch_headless/</a></p>
<br>
<code>sudo pacman -S archiso
mkdir arch-headless && cd arch-headless
cp -r /usr/share/archiso/configs/releng/ .
mkdir releng/airootfs/root/.ssh/
cp ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub releng/airootfs/root/.ssh/authorized_keys
sudo mkarchiso -v -o ./out ./releng
</code>
Insert a usb key, mine is in /dev/sdc, and create a bootable usb drive
<code>dd if=./out/archlinux-2025.03.21-x86_64.iso of=/dev/sdc bs=4M; sync</code>
<br>
<p>Find the IP address of the machine, and ssh to it. You can then run
archinstall for example.</p>
