Installation

1) Download a Release Image

• Orange Pi Prime
• Orange Pi Zero
• Pine64
• RPi 2
• RPi 3
• RPi 4

DHCP images are provided by the above links.

2) Extract the image from the archive

Usually right-click -> extract.

Tip: you can use the tar command in the linux subsystem for windows

3) Write the image to a microSD card (linux)

Identify your microSD card using the output of lsblk and flash the created image to your microSD Card with dd or dcfldd:

$ sudo dd if=arch-linux-X-XXXXXXXX.img of=/dev/sdX

3) Write the image to a microSD card (windows)

Windows users should use the rufus utility to write the image to the microSD card.

Be sure you don't forget to expand the rootFS partition to occupy the rest of the microSD card! Forgetting to expand the root partition is the number 1 source of errors. I am unfamiliar with the process for doing this on windows.

4) Expand the rootFS partition to occupy the rest of the microSD card

To expand the root filesystem partition, I use gnome-disks. Many utilities exist on linux for doing this including parted gparted cfdisk just to name a few.

5) Bootstrapping

You should have an image on the microSD card at this point.
