+### ArchLinux on MacBook Pro Retina 13" (Model A1502)
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+#### Resources
|
|
|
+Much of this has been adapted from https://gist.github.com/terlar/6143325. Other parts are mostly from countless Google searches and manic arch wiki scouring.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+#### Pre-install on Mac
|
|
|
+This needs revisiting. I already had a partition available from a previous install after the Yosemite update. If all else fails ``diskutil corestorage revert UUID`` will remove Apple's logical volume update and allow diskutil to resize a partition normally.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+````
|
|
|
+diskutil corestorage list # Need the bottom-most logical volume UUID
|
|
|
+diskutil corestorage resizeStack <UUID> <size>
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+# If that doesn't work, some tinkering may be required along the lines of:
|
|
|
+diskutil corestorage resizeVolume UUID <size>
|
|
|
+diskutil corestorage resizeDisk UUID <size>
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+# Once you've got a free partition, you need to
|
|
|
+# format an JHFS+ partition for booting via rEFInd
|
|
|
+diskutil list # Need free space partition
|
|
|
+diskutil partionDisk 2 /dev/diskXsY JHFS+ 'rEFInd' 100M HSF+ 'doesntmatter' R
|
|
|
+```
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+##### rEFInd
|
|
|
+First, download rEFInd
|
|
|
+````
|
|
|
+<rEFInd>/install /Volumes/rEFInd --ownhfs /dev/diskXsY # 'rEFInd' parition
|
|
|
+```
|
|
|
+- Edit /Volumes/rEFInd/System/Library/CoreServices/refind.conf
|
|
|
+ - scan_delay 1
|
|
|
+ - dont_scan_volumes "Recovery HD"
|
|
|
+ - timeout 5
|
|
|
+- Theme rEFInd (currently https://github.com/EvanPurkhiser/rEFInd-minimal)
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+#### Installing Arch
|
|
|
+Download a pre-built Broadcom wireless driver here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_MBK5kv4gmxOTdvMXNwMU9EOGc/view?usp=sharing or USB tether from a phone to install Arch.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+**If using the pre-built package:**
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+````
|
|
|
+mkdir /mnt/usb
|
|
|
+mount /dev/sdaY /mnt/usb
|
|
|
+cp /mnt/usb/PATH/TO/broadcom-wl-6.30.223.248-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz ~
|
|
|
+pacman -U ~/broadcom-wl-6.30.223.248-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
|
|
|
+modprobe -r wl
|
|
|
+modprobe wl
|
|
|
+umount /mnt/usb
|
|
|
+rmdir /mnt/usb
|
|
|
+wifi-menu -o wlp3s0
|
|
|
+```
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+**If tethering from a phone:**
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+````
|
|
|
+ip link # get device name for USB tether
|
|
|
+dhclient # dhcp didn't work for my phone
|
|
|
+```
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+##### Bootstrapping
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+````
|
|
|
+gdisk /dev/sda
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdaY
|
|
|
+# and any other partitions
|
|
|
+mkswap /dev/sdaZ
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+mount /dev/sdaY /mnt
|
|
|
+# if using a seperate home partition
|
|
|
+mkdir /mnt/home && mount /dev/sdaY /mnt/home
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+pacstrap /mnt base base-devel wpa_actiond wpa_supplicant dialog linux-headers sudo
|
|
|
+genfstab -p /mnt >> /mnt/etc/fstab
|
|
|
+# SSD optimize /etc/fstab
|
|
|
+# 'defaults,noatime,discard,data=writeback' are generally alright options
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+# if using the pre-built wireless driver method
|
|
|
+cp ~/broadcom-wl-6.30.223.248-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz /mnt/root
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+arch-chroot /mnt /bin/bash
|
|
|
+echo name > /etc/hostname
|
|
|
+ln -s /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Chicago /etc/localtime
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+echo "en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8" >> /etc/locale.gen
|
|
|
+locale-gen
|
|
|
+echo LANG=en_US.UTF-8 > /etc/locale.conf
|
|
|
+export LANG=en_US.UTF-8
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+vi /etc/mkinitcpio.conf
|
|
|
+# Add resume _after_ block and lvm2, but _before_ filesystems
|
|
|
+mkinitcpio -p linux
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+# rEFInd
|
|
|
+echo '"Arch Linux" "root=/dev/sdaX resume=/dev/sdaY rw splash loglevel=3 rootflags=data=writeback libata.force=noncq initrd=boot/initramfs-linux.img"' > /boot/refind_linux.conf
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+useradd -m -g users -G wheel -s /bin/bash username
|
|
|
+```
|
|
|
+If you're using the pre-built wireless driver, you can reboot. If not, you may want to see the Yaourt section, and ```yaourt -S broadcom-wl-dkms``` before exiting the live USB.
