2 daysfix(archsetup): add btrfs detection, don't assume non-ZFS is btrfsCraig Jennings
- Add is_btrfs_root() function - Only install timeshift-autosnap and grub-btrfs on btrfs systems - Skip snapshot tools on ext4/other filesystems
2 daysfeat(archsetup): add config file support for unattended installsCraig Jennings
- Add --config-file PATH CLI flag - Add load_config() function to source config variables - Support USERNAME, PASSWORD, AUTOLOGIN, NO_GPU_DRIVERS config options - Create archsetup.conf.example with documented options Follows same pattern as archzfs project for consistency.
2 dayschore: add stignore and reference docsCraig Jennings
- .stignore for syncthing - Reference notes for ZFS scripts removal and console display issues
2 daysrefactor(archsetup): remove --skip-slow-packages flagCraig Jennings
texlive-meta was replaced with smaller texlive packages, and topgrade should always be installed. The flag is no longer needed.
2 daysfix(archsetup): improve error reporting and desktop database setupCraig Jennings
- Install desktop-file-utils before calling update-desktop-database - Simplify firewall warning to terse message in error summary - Clean up package failure messages to show just package name and source
2 daysfix(archsetup): add PAM config for gnome-keyring auto-unlockCraig Jennings
Configure /etc/pam.d/login to pass login password to gnome-keyring-daemon, enabling automatic keyring unlock on console login + startx workflow.
2 daysfeat(archsetup): add additional gstreamer codec packagesCraig Jennings
Add gst-plugins-bad, gst-plugins-ugly, and gst-libav for broader multimedia format support including AAC, MP3, x264, and FFmpeg codecs.
2 daysrefactor(archsetup): remove jdk, racket, and foliate packagesCraig Jennings
Remove unused packages: - jdk-openjdk and openjdk-doc (Java) - racket (Scheme) - foliate (epub reader)
2 daysrefactor(archsetup): replace texlive-meta with minimal package setCraig Jennings
texlive-meta installs 2GB of packages including games, music notation, and humanities packages that aren't needed. Replace with minimal set (~335MB) that provides core LaTeX, latexmk, and standard fonts.
2 daysfix(archsetup): enable syncthing user service via symlinkCraig Jennings
systemctl --user requires an active D-Bus user session bus, which doesn't exist during installation. Create the enable symlink directly in ~/.config/systemd/user/default.target.wants/ instead.
2 daysfix(archsetup): fix dbus-broker race condition with sysusersCraig Jennings
dbus-broker can start before systemd-sysusers completes, causing it to fail user validation when parsing service files that reference system users like geoclue. Add a drop-in to ensure sysusers runs first.
2 daysfix(archsetup): enable ufw firewall with ufw enable commandCraig Jennings
systemctl start ufw.service only runs ufw-init which checks if ENABLED=yes in /etc/ufw/ufw.conf. Without running 'ufw enable' first, the firewall remains inactive. Added 'ufw --force enable' to actually activate the firewall rules.
2 daysfix(archsetup): use modalias for GPU detection instead of lspciCraig Jennings
lspci parsing missed GPUs that report as "Display controller" instead of "VGA" (e.g., AMD Strix Halo). Modalias-based detection checks vendor IDs directly from /sys, which is more reliable and matches how the kernel itself identifies hardware.

- Verify ufw is active after setup completes - Display critical security warning in outro if firewall not active - Include manual fix commands in warning message

5 daysfix(archsetup): remove unnecessary firewall portsCraig Jennings
Remove ports for services not installed: - 80,443,8080/tcp (no web server) - 9040,9050,9051,9053,9119/tcp (Tor relay - only client installed) - 443/tcp limit (no HTTPS service) Add inline comments documenting each port's purpose.
5 daysfeat(archsetup): skip avahi if already runningCraig Jennings
Detect if avahi-daemon.service is active and skip install/config. Supports archzfs installs that pre-configure avahi for mDNS on first boot.
6 daysfix(archsetup): remove root account lockingCraig Jennings
Locking root prevents console access after reboot, making recovery impossible without reinstalling.

Move redirect outside subshell so mkdir and git clone output goes to logfile instead of stdout.
6 daysfix(archsetup): fix npm global install and add wireless-regdbCraig Jennings
- Run npm install -g as root (global install requires root perms) - Add wireless-regdb to prerequisites (prevents kernel regulatory warnings)
6 daysfix(archsetup): start systemd-resolved before creating DNS symlinkCraig Jennings
The stub-resolv.conf file only exists when systemd-resolved is running.
6 daysfeat(archsetup): configure Docker to use ZFS storage driver on ZFS systemsCraig Jennings

6 daysfeat(archsetup): add claude-code AI coding assistantCraig Jennings
Installs @anthropic-ai/claude-code via npm after npm is installed. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
6 daysfix(archsetup): use official repo packages for tailscale and torbrowserCraig Jennings
- tailscale-bin no longer exists in AUR; tailscale is now in official repos - torbrowser-launcher (official repo) is more reliable than tor-browser-bin (AUR) which has GPG key verification issues Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
6 daysfix(archsetup): fix ZFS scrub timer and emacs cloneCraig Jennings
- ZFS scrub timer: use template unit with pool name (zfs-scrub-weekly@pool.timer) - Emacs config: handle existing .emacs.d dir with git pull instead of failing
