Archinstall 2.5-rc1 was released yesterday in preparation for this next release. This updated installer now optionally allows a configurable number of parallel downloads to happen from Arch Linux mirrors to speed things up. There is also UI refinements and a variety of other enhancements for this quick and easy Arch Linux installer.
- Improved Btrfs sub-volume definitions.
- Setting better and more sane default file permissions on logs and configurations.
- A new advanced option allows for setting the number of parallel downloads to happen simultaneously. The option is being discouraged because it puts extra strain on Arch Linux mirrors.
- Improved UI functionality.
- Password strength checks are now less intrusive.
- Improved many translations as well as adding some new languages.
