Arch image for Pinephone - where to get it? - MikeMan - 01-27-2022
Can someone give me a pointer to where I can get an Arch image distro for the PinePhone?

Be sure to get the right one for your device (Pinephone, Pinephone Pro, etc). Hope this helps.

I added all my notes to setup a PinePhone with Arch.
Think of this as a guide and most of the commands will need to be changed depending on your setup.

Additionally there is a nice script allowing you to streamline installing Arch + encryption onto SDCARD.
Works nicely on emmc as well.
Start up jumpdrive on your Pinephone, and find the easy to use script here: https://github.com/dreemurrs-embedded/archarm-mobile-fde-installer/blob/master/installer.sh
If you decide to use f2fs over ext4 (shown in some cases to improve speed on flash memory), you will want to first install: squashfs-tools && f2fs-tools

Works great, and Plasma is nice. lolol It would be EVEN NICER if I could get a virtual keyboard to open! lololol There's got to be a trick to it. Can't even get one up for terminal. Surely it han't just been forgotten lololololol

Hey @MikeMan
From release notes from @Danct12
NOTE: Plasma images in this release are shipped with broken virtual keyboard, this has now fixed on upstream but you'll need a physical keyboard plugged in or some other way to run the update.

Cool. Thanks very much for the info.
I'll load the current image as I like Arch with Plasma quite a lot.
