The script expects minimal prep on your end. Please make sure that before execution at least one of the following conditions are met. The script expects minimal prep on your end. Please make sure that before execution the following conditions are met.
- Your machine has exactly one partition with partition type code `BF00` ("Solaris root") - Arch live CD ISO image sees exactly one partition with partition type code `BF00` ("Solaris root")
- Arch live CD ISO image sees exactly one partition with partition type code `EF00` ("EFI system partition")
- No ZFS zpool exists
The script will create a single ZFS zpool `zpool` on the `BF00` partition with dataset child `zpool/root` which itself has one child `zpool/root/archlinux`, that's where Arch Linux gets installed. Parallel to `zpool/root` it'll create `zpool/data` with a `zpool/data/home` child dataset that gets mounted at `/home`.
The script will use the `EF00` partition to install a ZFSBootMenu EFI executable if - and only if - `efibootmgr` says that no such `ZFSBootMenu` entry exists. If ZFSBootMenu gets added to the EFI partition it'll become primary boot option.
