[NOT RECOMMENDED] Install a less bloated RebornOS (Arch installer distro)

Often gives broken mirrors, avoid

Reborn OS is a GUI installer distro for Arch Linux. I looked for a way to get a quick working install, but install scripts gave me errors on bare metal machines and this method works just fine. If you're looking for a similar guide without systemd check out my Artix guide.

GNOME desktop envorment packages are listed but you can use your own if you know the packages and service names
GDM is the login screen made for GNOME
Network Manager is the conectivity component of GNOME and some other desktop enviroments

1. Install with "basic" desktop enviroment
2. pacman -Sy gnome-shell gdm gnome-control-center network-manager
3. systemctl enable gdm.service
4. systemctl enable NetworkManager.service (case sensitive)
5. reboot should put you in the GDM login screen GUI
6. Enable AUR and AUR updates for pamac (aka Add/Remove Software) in the hamburger > preferences menu
7. Install base-devel from AUR for building AUR packages
8. Install archlinux-appstream-data-pamac for working categories in Pamac

There are some extra RebornOS customization packages in the Reborn-OS repository but I am unsure how to remove them properly. The grub theme will give an error every boot before the bootscreen but I'm sure you just need to mess with the grub config file (or more conveniently grub-customizer)
