Configure timezone

Configure language

$ vim /etc/locale.gen
# uncomment the line with 'en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8'
$ locale-gen
$ echo 'LANG=en_US.utf-8' > /etc/locale.conf
[root@archiso /]# cat /etc/locale.conf
LANG=en_US.utf-8

---
Set rootpasswd

$ passwd root

---
Set hostname

$ echo "archlinux.local" > /etc/hostname

---
Setting up the boot-loader (syslinux)

$ pacman -S gdisk syslinux
$ syslinux-install_update -i -a -m

We need to edit the syslinux config file to use the correct root partition

$ vim boot/syslinux/syslinux.cfg

Scroll down to find the section that lists entries for arch and archfallback. Replace “sda2” with the root partition of your system. After making those changes, my entries look like these.

Enable services

$ systemctl enable dhcpcd
$ systemctl enable sshd
$ systemctl enable NetworkManager

Reboot

$ umount -R /mnt

Configure static IP address on Arch Linux

Reference: https://nanxiao.me/en/configure-static-ip-address-on-arch-linux/

Use NetworkManager to manage network on Arch Linux

# Check current connection
$ sudo -i
$ nmcli con show

# Verify the new ip
$ ip addr
# Check current configurations
$ nmcli d show

# It is done! BTW, the connection file can be found:
$ cat /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/Wired\ connection\ 1.nmconnection
