- # General Idea
- I wanted to install Parabola OpenRC on a USB Flash drive
- Following https://wiki.parabola.nu/Beginners%27_Guide
- /dev/sdb is my bootable live usb
- /dev/sdc is my install device
- # 3.1
- Downloaded the openrc dual cli iso from Parabola downloads page. SHA256SUMS matched.
- # 3.3
- # dd bs=4M if=parabola-openrc-2020.01.18-dual.iso of=/dev/sdb && sync
- It said:
- ```
- 219+1 records in
- 219+1 records out
- 919601152 bytes (920 MB, 877 MiB) copied, 425.305 s, 2.2 MB/s
- ```
- Rebooted and booted into the x86_64 live usb.
- # 4
- I was fine with US keyboard layout so didn't bother to change.
- # 5
- ```
- # ping -c 3 www.gnu.org
- ```
- I was in ethernet so returned pings as expected. Skipped the wireless (5.1) part.
- # 6.1
- Ran `lsblk` and it showed my device on `/dev/sdc`
- # 6.4
- ```
- parted /dev/sdc
- (parted) mklabel msdos
- ```
- # 6.5
- ```
- (parted) mkpart primary ext2 0% 100%
- (parted) print
- ```
- shows 1 as a partition number, so:
- ```
- (parted) set 1 boot on
- (parted) quit
- ```
- `cfdisk /dev/sdc` showed one single drive with boot flag correctly set.
- ```
- # mkfs.ext2 -L "parabola" /dev/sdc1
- ```
- # 6.7
- No swap, so skipped
- # 6.8
- mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt
- # 7
- Edited `/etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist` to get my closest mirror to the top.
- # 8
- I have checked `/etc/pacman.conf` and nonsystemd section is uncommented and top of other repositories.
- Ran:
- ```
- # pacstrap -i /mnt base base-devel elogind
- ```
- Selected all the default options and it fails saying:
- ```
- ...
- looking for conflicting packages...
- error: unresolvable package conflicts detected
- error: failed to prepare transaction (conflicting dependencies)
- :: openrc and systemd are in conflict
- ==> ERROR: Failed to install packages to new root
- ```
- Changed `base` to `base-openrc`:
- ```
- # pacstrap -i /mnt base-openrc base-devel elogind
- ```
- Same error message.
