## There are two ways you can install joborun quickly ##
#### 1 From and Arch based system using pacman ####
#### [[2|inst_from_image.md]] By downloading our [[tarball|inst_from_image.md]] of the minimal base system ####

1 First create a new partition for the system to be created.

We will only provide here information that is different than Arch Linux or Obarun.

###### Assumptions for this installation: ######
- User has partitioned, formatted, and mounted partitions on /mnt
- User has partitioned, formatted, and mounted partitions <bold>on /mnt</bold>
- Network is functional
- Arguments passed to the script are valid pacman targets
- A valid mirror appears in /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
- You are in a root shell
- arch-install-scripts is installed in your system (includes arch-chroot & genfstab which will be used here)
One of the key differences with Arch is that joborun and Obarun have a few more repositories that are placed higher up in hierarchy within /etc/pacman.conf to give priority to joborun's packages over Obarun, and Obarun's in turn over arch.

(Obarun's packages other than s6/66 are generally rebuilds without systemd/libs running dependencies. Joborun's packages over Arch are rebuilds without systemd/libs makedependencies).

*** You have a choice of joborun's special linux-lts (5.10) or linux (5.15) and if you need linux/linux-lts headers add them to the list. Same for linux-firmware, especially if you have an AMD machine with Radeon gfx card, you will not get anything on screen without it.
We highly recommend linux-lts (5.10) as a very well developed kernel expiring in 2026, while 5.15 is expected to last only till 2024. So 5.10 is a longer LTS, while 5.15 is a relative short term LTS.
If you want additional packages you can either do this later through chroot or add them at the end of the above command (ie networking package of choice, text editor, arch-install-scripts, bootloader-grub/syslinux, etc. )

You do this by editing: /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist.
