Archlinux install sources from netinstall, so we need a connection here
Do this only if needed, test with a ping www.google.com
Add DNS servers in /etc/resolv.conf
Get Ethernet module with lspci -k and ip link
Edit /etc/conf.d/network@ and put static IP, gateway and netmask in
Create the file /etc/systemd/system/network@.service with the following content:
[Unit]
Description=Network connectivity (%i)
Wants=network.target
Before=network.target
BindsTo=sys-subsystem-net-devices-%i.device
After=sys-subsystem-net-devices-%i.device

[Service]
Type=oneshot
RemainAfterExit=yes
EnvironmentFile=/etc/conf.d/network@%i
ExecStart=/usr/bin/ip link set dev %i up
ExecStart=/usr/bin/ip addr add ${address}/${netmask} broadcast ${broadcast} dev %i
ExecStart=/usr/bin/ip route add default via ${gateway}

ExecStop=/usr/bin/ip addr flush dev %i
ExecStop=/usr/bin/ip link set dev %i down

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
Add proxy if any with export http_proxy=http://proxy.url.tld:8080
Enable network service with systemctl start network
If you encounter any problem with your network, try to add the kernel ethernet module :
systemctl stop dhcpcd
modprobe <kernel module>
# The module brand below depends of your network card
# For example, for module r8169, name the file realtek.conf
sudo echo <kernel module> > /etc/modules-load.d/<module brand>.conf
sudo systemctl start dhcpcd
End of network configuration
Install source packages
pacstrap /mnt base base-devel
Mount disks on start
echo "/dev/sd<n>3 / ext4 defaults 0 1" > /mnt/etc/fstab
echo "/dev/sd<n>2 none swap sw 0 0" >> /mnt/etc/fstab
Start to configure OS, as root
arch-chroot /mnt
 
echo -e "fr_FR.UTF-8 UTF-8" >> /etc/locale.gen

echo KEYMAP=fr-pc > /etc/vconsole.conf
export LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8
