Arch Linux
                   Installation and Live-CDs
                  ----------------------------

All images give you a live console environment in which you can do
a manual or automatic installation and which can be used as maintenance and rescue systems.

All iso files can also be written to hard disks/usbkeys.


Flavors:
--------
* Netinstall images are the preferred install media for Arch Linux.
  You can get up to date packages using these media by connecting to a mirror.
* Core images contain a snapshot of the core repository, which makes them ideal
  for offline installations when no Internet access is available
  to install the base system.  (you can do a netinstall with these also)

Both come in i686, x86_64 or dual variant. The latter contains both and lets you choose
an architecture at boot.


How to obtain and use these installation images:
-------------------------------------
Torrents are preferred (they are webseed enabled), but you can also just get the images
from an Arch mirror.
When downloading from a mirror, please verify the md5sum or sha1sum of the downloaded files before proceeding.
You can find the checksum files along the iso files.
