The installation script provides an [[https://artixlinux.org][Artix Linux]] distribution with BTRFS and minimal packages.
Follow the setup process bellow to install it onto a system.
* Setup
1. boot up a system with an [[https://artixlinux.org/download.php][Artix Linux ISO]] (it must be a dinit base image)
2. login as =root= with password =artix=
3. ensure system is connected to the internet
4. download git & a text editor (e.g. =pacman -Syy git nano=)
5. clone this repository onto the system
6. configure options in the =config= file
7. run =install.sh= to begin installation
* Notes
- default root password is =artix=
- decryption password is the =user= password
