Extra: Installing via SSH

WARNING: Only do this in a trustworthy network environment, e.g. at home, to prevent the possibility of tampering from outside sources! The system will not notify you if someone else logs into the installation environment alongside yourself!

If you want to install Arch Linux via SSH set a password for the root user of the installation environment with passwd. This doesn't have to be a sophisticated password, as it will only be valid for the runtime of the installation environment and won't carry over to the installed system.

Installing via SSH will allow you to use your already installed system's terminal to copy-paste commands quickly.

NOTE: Native OpenSSH clients are available on Linux, macOS and Windows (starting with Windows 10 1809).

After you've set a password connect to the installation environment:

ssh -o PreferredAuthentications=password root@archiso
