Verify boot mode

ls /sys/firmware/efi/efivars

If the command shows the directory without error, then the system is booted in UEFI mode. If the directory does not exist, the system may be booted in BIOS (or CSM) mode. If the system did not boot in the mode you desired, refer to your motherboard’s manual.

Internet connect

ip link

ping archlinux.org

Partition the disk

archwiki

fdisk /dev/sda

As we’re booted in BIOS so, we need /dev/sda1 for /mnt (Linux) and /dev/sda2 for swap (Linux Swap)

./assets/images/arch-k3s__Running_.jpg

mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda1

# make swap
mkswap /dev/sda2
swapon /dev/sda2

#mount /dev/sda1 to /mnt
mount /dev/sda1 /mnt

genfstab -U /mnt >> /mnt/etc/fstab
cat /mnt/etc/fstab
