There&nbsp;exists&nbsp;a&nbsp;nice&nbsp;solution&nbsp;to&nbsp;install&nbsp;different&nbsp;linux&nbsp;operating
systems,&nbsp;installimage:
*&nbsp;https://github.com/virtapi/installimage&nbsp;(my&nbsp;version)
*&nbsp;https://github.com/hetzneronline/installimage&nbsp;(the&nbsp;hetzner&nbsp;version)

This&nbsp;can&nbsp;be&nbsp;executed&nbsp;via&nbsp;any&nbsp;live&nbsp;linux,&nbsp;for&nbsp;example&nbsp;a&nbsp;custom&nbsp;arch&nbsp;PXE:
*&nbsp;https://github.com/virtapi/LARS

This&nbsp;utilizes&nbsp;the&nbsp;mentioned&nbsp;.automated_script.sh&nbsp;to&nbsp;run&nbsp;installimage&nbsp;at
multiple&nbsp;big&nbsp;ISPs.

There&nbsp;is&nbsp;also&nbsp;a&nbsp;Python&nbsp;based&nbsp;API&nbsp;to&nbsp;manage&nbsp;DHCP,&nbsp;PXE&nbsp;and&nbsp;installimage
configs&nbsp;via&nbsp;a&nbsp;web&nbsp;API&nbsp;at&nbsp;are&nbsp;processed&nbsp;by&nbsp;isc-dhcp&nbsp;(their&nbsp;ldap
backend)/tftp-hpa&nbsp;with&nbsp;pxelinux/installimage
*&nbsp;https://github.com/virtapi/marmoset

Let&nbsp;me&nbsp;know&nbsp;if&nbsp;you&#39;ve&nbsp;questions&nbsp;about&nbsp;any&nbsp;of&nbsp;these&nbsp;projects.&nbsp;The
installimage&nbsp;and&nbsp;LARS&nbsp;repos&nbsp;also&nbsp;have&nbsp;flowcharts&nbsp;in&nbsp;their&nbsp;README.md.

Cheers,&nbsp;Tim

&gt;&gt;&nbsp;Hey,&nbsp;all.
&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;&nbsp;One&nbsp;of&nbsp;the&nbsp;things&nbsp;that&nbsp;I&nbsp;feel&nbsp;limits&nbsp;Arch&nbsp;Linux&nbsp;is&nbsp;the&nbsp;lack&nbsp;of&nbsp;an
&gt;&gt;&nbsp;ability&nbsp;to&nbsp;kick&nbsp;off&nbsp;an&nbsp;unattended&nbsp;install.&nbsp;Sure,&nbsp;you&nbsp;can&nbsp;boot&nbsp;via&nbsp;PXE&nbsp;or
&gt;&gt;&nbsp;the&nbsp;like,&nbsp;but&nbsp;the&nbsp;actual&nbsp;install&nbsp;does&nbsp;not&nbsp;take&nbsp;place.
&gt;&nbsp;Just&nbsp;FYI,&nbsp;maybe&nbsp;not&nbsp;what&nbsp;you&nbsp;want,&nbsp;but&nbsp;I&nbsp;have&nbsp;been&nbsp;sending&nbsp;the&nbsp;script=
&gt;&nbsp;kernel&nbsp;cmdline&nbsp;from&nbsp;the&nbsp;PXE&nbsp;server:
&gt;&nbsp;https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/archiso/-/blob/master/configs/releng/airootfs/root/.automated_script.sh
