Bash scripts for installing Arch/Artix Linux. install.sh installs the whole system from scratch and then calls post-install.sh. If you prefer, you may install the system manually (or in an existing installation) and run post-install.sh alone. There is no need to clone the repository, as each script can download missing files.
