 # Installation & Usage
-> [!TIP]
-> In the ISO you are root by default. Use sudo if running from an existing system.
 
-```shell
-pacman-key --init
-pacman -Sy archinstall
-archinstall
-```
+    $ sudo pacman -S archinstall
 
-Alternative ways to install are `git clone` the repository (and is better since you get the latest code regardless of [build date](https://archlinux.org/packages/?sort=&q=archinstall)) or `pip install --upgrade archinstall`.
-
-## Upgrade `archinstall` on live Arch ISO image
-
-Upgrading archinstall on the ISO needs to be done via a full system upgrade using 
-
-```shell
-pacman -Syu
-```
-
-When booting from a live USB, the space on the ramdisk is limited and may not be sufficient to allow running a re-installation or upgrade of the installer.
-In case one runs into this issue, any of the following can be used
-
-* Resize the root partition https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Archiso#Adjusting_the_size_of_the_root_file_system
-* Specify the boot parameter copytoram=y (https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/mkinitcpio/mkinitcpio-archiso/-/blob/master/docs/README.bootparams#L26) which will copy the root filesystem to tmpfs
+Alternative ways to install are `git clone` the repository or `pip install --upgrade archinstall`.
 
 ## Running the [guided](https://github.com/archlinux/archinstall/blob/master/archinstall/scripts/guided.py) installer
 
-Assuming you are on an Arch Linux live-ISO or installed via `pip`, `archinstall` will use the `guided` script by default
-```shell
-archinstall
-```
-similar goes for running the [guided](https://github.com/archlinux/archinstall/blob/master/archinstall/scripts/guided.py) installer using `git
+Assuming you are on an Arch Linux live-ISO or installed via `pip`:
 
-```shell
-git clone https://github.com/archlinux/archinstall
-cd archinstall
-python -m archinstall $@
-```
+    # archinstall
 
-To run alternative scripts using the `--script` parameter
+## Running the [guided](https://github.com/archlinux/archinstall/blob/master/archinstall/scripts/guided.py) installer using `git`
 
-```
-archinstall --script <name>
-```
+    # cd archinstall-git
+    # cp archinstall/scripts/guided.py
+    # python guided.py
 
 #### Advanced
-Some additional options that most users do not need are hidden behind the `--advanced` flag and all options/args can be consulted through `-h` or `--help`. 
+Some additional options that are not needed by most users are hidden behind the `--advanced` flag.
 
 ## Running from a declarative configuration file or URL
 
 `archinstall` can be run with a JSON configuration file. There are 2 different configuration files to consider,
 the `user_configuration.json` contains all general installation configuration, whereas the `user_credentials.json`
-contains the sensitive user configuration such as user password, root password, and encryption password.
+contains the sensitive user configuration such as user password, root password and encryption password.
 
 An example of the user configuration file can be found here
 [configuration file](https://github.com/archlinux/archinstall/blob/master/examples/config-sample.json)
-and an example of the credentials configuration here
+and example of the credentials configuration here
 [credentials file](https://github.com/archlinux/archinstall/blob/master/examples/creds-sample.json).
 
 **HINT:** The configuration files can be auto-generated by starting `archinstall`, configuring all desired menu
 points and then going to `Save configuration`.
 
 To load the configuration file into `archinstall` run the following command
-```shell
+```
 archinstall --config <path to user config file or URL> --creds <path to user credentials config file or URL>
 ```
 
-### Credentials configuration file encryption
-By default, all user account credentials are hashed with `yescrypt` and only the hash is stored in the saved `user_credentials.json` file.
-This is not possible for disk encryption password which needs to be stored in plaintext to be able to apply it.
-
-However, when selecting to save configuration files, `archinstall` will prompt for the option to encrypt the `user_credentials.json` file content.
-A prompt will require to enter a encryption password to encrypt the file. When providing an encrypted `user_configuration.json` as a argument with `--creds <user_credentials.json>`
-there are multiple ways to provide the decryption key:
-* Provide the decryption key via the command line argument `--creds-decryption-key <password>`
-* Store the encryption key in the environment variable `ARCHINSTALL_CREDS_DECRYPTION_KEY` which will be read automatically
-* If none of the above is provided a prompt will be shown to enter the decryption key manually

-# Help or Issues
-
-If you come across any issues, kindly submit your issue here on GitHub or post your query in the
-[discord](https://discord.gg/aDeMffrxNg) help channel.
-
-When submitting an issue, please:
-* Provide the stacktrace of the output if applicable
-* Attach the `/var/log/archinstall/install.log` to the issue ticket. This helps us help you!

 # Available Languages
 
 Archinstall is available in different languages which have been contributed and are maintained by the community.
-The language can be switched inside the installer (first menu entry). Bear in mind that not all languages provide
-full translations as we rely on contributors to do the translations. Each language has an indicator that shows
-how much has been translated.
+Current translations are listed below and vary in the amount of translations per language
+```
+English
+Arabic
+Brazilian Portuguese
+Czech
+Dutch
+Estonian
+French

+German
+Indonesian
+Italian
+Korean
+Modern Greek

 Any contributions to the translations are more than welcome,
 to get started please follow [the guide](https://github.com/archlinux/archinstall/blob/master/archinstall/locales/README.md)
 
-## Fonts
-The ISO does not ship with all fonts needed for different languages.
-Fonts that use a different character set than Latin will not be displayed correctly. If those languages
-want to be selected then a proper font has to be set manually in the console.
+# Help or Issues
 
-All available console fonts can be found in `/usr/share/kbd/consolefonts` and set with `setfont LatGrkCyr-8x16`.
+Submit an issue here on GitHub, or submit a post in the discord help channel.<br>
+When doing so, attach the `/var/log/archinstall/install.log` to the issue ticket. This helps us help you!
+
+# Mission Statement
+
+Archinstall promises to ship a [guided installer](https://github.com/archlinux/archinstall/blob/master/archinstall/scripts/guided.py) that follows
+the [Arch Principles](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_Linux#Principles) as well as a library to manage services, packages and other Arch Linux aspects.
+
+The guided installer will provide user-friendly options along the way, but the keyword here is options, they are optional and will never be forced upon anyone.
+The guided installer itself is also optional to use if so desired and not forced upon anyone.
+
+---
+
+Archinstall has one fundamental function which is to be a flexible library to manage services, packages and other aspects inside the installed system.
+This library is in turn used by the provided guided installer but is also for anyone who wants to script their own installations.
+
+Therefore, Archinstall will try its best to not introduce any breaking changes except for major releases which may break backwards compatibility after notifying about such changes.
 
 
 # Scripting your own installation
 
 ## Scripting interactive installation
 
-For an example of a fully scripted, interactive installation please refer to the example
-[interactive_installation.py](https://github.com/archlinux/archinstall/blob/master/archinstall/scripts/guided.py)
+There are some examples in the `examples/` directory that should serve as a starting point.
 
+The following is a small example of how to script your own *interative* installation:
 
-> **To create your own ISO with this script in it:** Follow [ArchISO](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/archiso)'s guide on creating your own ISO.
+```python
+from pathlib import Path
+
+from archinstall import Installer, ProfileConfiguration, profile_handler, User
+from archinstall.default_profiles.minimal import MinimalProfile
+from archinstall.lib.disk.device_model import FilesystemType
+from archinstall.lib.disk.encryption_menu import DiskEncryptionMenu
+from archinstall.lib.disk.filesystem import FilesystemHandler
+from archinstall.lib.interactions.disk_conf import select_disk_config
+
+fs_type = FilesystemType('ext4')
+
+# Select a device to use for the installation

+## Unattended installation based on MAC address
+
+Archinstall comes with an [unattended](https://github.com/archlinux/archinstall/blob/master/examples/mac_address_installation.py)
+example which will look for a matching profile for the machine it is being run on, based on any local MAC address.
+For instance, if the machine the code is executed on has the MAC address `52:54:00:12:34:56` it will look for a profile called
+[52-54-00-12-34-56.py](https://github.com/archlinux/archinstall/blob/master/archinstall/default_profiles/tailored.py).
+If it's found, the unattended installation will commence and source that profile as its installation procedure.

-# FAQ
-
-## AUR
-
-`archinstall` will not offer or bundle AUR helpers or AUR packages due to a current consensus. This is not any individual developers decision. The reasons and discussions for this stance on the topic can be found on our mailing list thread: [(optional) AUR helper in archinstall](https://lists.archlinux.org/archives/list/arch-dev-public@lists.archlinux.org/thread/VYOULH2GOJLFM2BXOFLWH3D754YXFPSL/).

-## Keyring out-of-date
-For a description of the problem see https://archinstall.archlinux.page/help/known_issues.html#keyring-is-out-of-date-2213 and discussion in issue https://github.com/archlinux/archinstall/issues/2213.
-
-For a quick fix the below command will install the latest keyrings

-## How to dual boot with Windows
-
-To install Arch Linux alongside an existing Windows installation using  `archinstall`, follow these steps:
-
-1. Ensure some unallocated space is available for the Linux installation after the Windows installation.
-2. Boot into the ISO and run `archinstall`.
-3. Choose `Disk configuration` -> `Manual partitioning`.
-4. Select the disk on which Windows resides.
-5. Select `Create a new partition`.
-6. Choose a filesystem type.
-7. Determine the start and end sectors for the new partition location (values can be suffixed with various units).
-8. Assign the mountpoint `/` to the new partition.
-9. Assign the `Boot/ESP` partition the mountpoint `/boot` from the partitioning menu.
-10. Confirm your settings and exit to the main menu by choosing `Confirm and exit`.
-11. Modify any additional settings for your installation as necessary.
-12. Start the installation upon completion of setup.

-# Mission Statement
-
-Archinstall promises to ship a [guided installer](https://github.com/archlinux/archinstall/blob/master/archinstall/scripts/guided.py) that follows
-the [Arch Linux Principles](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_Linux#Principles) as well as a library to manage services, packages, and other Arch Linux aspects.
-
-The guided installer ensures a user-friendly experience, offering optional selections throughout the process. Emphasizing its flexible nature, these options are never obligatory.
-In addition, the decision to use the guided installer remains entirely with the user, reflecting the Linux philosophy of providing full freedom and flexibility.
-
----
-
-Archinstall primarily functions as a flexible library for managing services, packages, and other elements within an Arch Linux system.
-This core library is the backbone for the guided installer that Archinstall provides. It is also designed to be used by those who wish to script their own custom installations.
-
-Therefore, Archinstall will try its best to not introduce any breaking changes except for major releases which may break backward compatibility after notifying about such changes.
