<H2>Alpine: Always install manual pages</H2>
 | 
			
		||||
<P>
 | 
			
		||||
Alpine doesn't include man pages in program packages to save on space, instead keeping them in <CODE>[<I>package</I>]-doc</CODE> sibling packages.
 | 
			
		||||
To always install doc packages with program packages, <CODE>apk add docs</CODE>.

<H2>Arch and Artix: Install essential packages</H2>
 |

<P>
 |

On Artix, use <CODE>basestrap(8)</CODE>.

On Arch, use <CODE>pacstrap(8)</CODE>.

<P>

At a minimum you need <CODE>base</CODE> on both Arch and Artix.
 | 
			
		||||
On Artix, you need to select the initialization you want to use: <CODE>66</CODE>, <CODE>dinit</CODE>, <CODE>openrc</CODE>, <CODE>runit</CODE>, or <CODE>s6-base</CODE>.
 | 
			
		||||
On both Arch and Artix, select a kernel; <CODE>linux</CODE>, <CODE>linux-lts</CODE>, or another Linux configuration or fork.
 | 
			
		||||
Arch says you need to install <CODE>linux-firmware</CODE>, technically you don't need to do so but you should.
 | 
			
		||||
Artix says you need to install the appropriate elogind package (<CODE>elogind-$(<B>INIT_SYSTEM</B>)</CODE>; e.g. <CODE>elogind-66</CODE>).
 | 
			
		||||
This isn't necessary if you aren't using elogind, but you <I>most likely</I> want elogind.
 | 
			
		||||
Install <CODE>base-devel</CODE> if you plan on using the AUR or if you don't know what the AUR is yet.

It's also a good idea to install any utilities you'll need on the bootstrapped system.
 | 
			
		||||
Text editors, network managers or utilities, and other administration tools, for example.
 | 
			
		||||
Manual utilities such as <CODE>man-db</CODE> and others would also be useful.

Don't use partitioners included with OS media where the same job can be done by <A HREF="https://gparted.org/">GParted</A> (which has live media available) or another good general-purpose partitioner.
 | 
			
		||||
BSDs and Plan 9 are exceptions to this rule due to their exotic partitioning systems.
 | 
			
		||||
Using utilities from a shell or TUIs does not make you "cooler" than someone who needs a GUI for partitioning; in some cases, messing up partitioning can have serious consequences, so it's always nice to have some idiot-proofing.
 | 
			
		||||
I always partition my disks with the GParted live media.

 |

<P>
 |

You should do your own research on how you should partition your disks.
 | 
			
		||||
I personally use separate partitions for /boot, /home, /, and swap.

		||||
Your needs will vary.
