Run a remixed Archlinux from a USB stick!
Hybrid mode, works with UEFI or standard BIOS. English US only.
Works like a normal HD/SSD install but, of course, slower...
Customized from SwagArch GNU/Linux ISO 64bit (https://swagarch.github.io/)
This is a XFCE based image.
Includes many pre installed programs.
Intended to be transferred to a HIGH speed USB 3.x (may work with HD/SSD, not tested).
Min. USB 16GB. Min. RAM 2GB, recommended 4GB+.

To copy, uncompress the image (aprox 8GB disk space needed) and use "suse image writer", "gnome disk utility" or DD command to restore the image to your USB stick.
This may take a long time, depending on your USB write speed.
May work with rufus (DD mode) in windows environment, not tested...

VERY IMPORTANT perform steps 1 to 3!
After first boot:
1- Open gparted (included in the img) to "fix" the partition. Just open it and click FIX when prompted;
2- In gparted enlarge (resize) the sdX3 (X is your Usb disk) partition and create new ones as needed. THIS IS IMPERATIVE, BECAUSE THE PARTITION OF 8GB IS ALMOST FULL, YOU MUST ENLARGE THE PARTITION OR THE SYSTEM WON'T WORK PROPERLY!
2.1- I suggest you create at least one extra LUKS (encrypted) partition to save your personal files for security reasons. Just in case you lose the stick... Better be safe than sorry.
3- Change passwords (root and user). 
4- Open terminal and remove keyrings: rm /home/me/.local/share/keyrings/*
5- REBOOT!; Set your correct keyboard layout in xfce settings (default is english US intl); Set your time zone (default NYC) using "SwagArch Settings Manager"; Set you correct network interface for Network Monitor Plugin (default eno1); Set your location for Weather Plugin (default is Kissimmee, FL).
6- Update mirrors (using fetchPKG program or reflector), update your system and enjoy!
