LARBS

Luke's Auto-Rice Bootstrapping Scripts

(Not actually Luke)

The LARBS are a series of shell scripts that will automatically install a fully-featured Arch Linux i3-gaps Desktop Environment, providing a perfect composite of both functionality and customizability.

Installation

In any install of Arch Linux, simply log in as the root user and run the following in the terminal:

curl -O larbs.xyz/larbs.sh
bash larbs.sh

This will begin a prompt and the installation after some setup. Installation time can vary depending on internet connection. Don't be worried if it takes even a little more than an hour: it's setting everything up.

You should be able to run LARBS on an already-configured system, and also other distributions that use Arch repositories, but I recommend running LARBS only on fresh Arch installations (I've never tried it myself on other distros, but it should work on a distro with pacman and access to the Arch repositories).

Learning the system is fun and easy!

You can figure out about the system in a lot of different ways:
