And in /etc/pacman.conf

Thanks. I will just have to change the mirrors with something close to home. I mentioned the one for Calamares
Well, just get it working, then you can pacman -S endeavouros-mirrorlist
and it will be managed for you automatically.
I will, Thanks. I will update you soon. It’s dinner time so prolly gonna be about an hour or so before I could do it.
Good luck, let me know how it went.
If you have any problems, @jonathon wrote an excellent guide on how to convert Manjaro to EndeavourOS, the same procedure (even simpler) should apply to converting vanilla Arch to EndeavourOS.
Certainly. I will have a look at that guide as well. Thanks so much for your time.
Do I have to do this?
Also, do I leave the Arch mirrorlist file in /etc/pacman.d ? or replace it with endeavouros-mirrorlist?
Edit: I’ll answer myself yes because I endeavouros-mirrorlist is for the extra packages the rest are pulled in from arch repos
Well it seems to work fine except when I installed eos-hooks I got the following error
sed: can’t read /etc/lsb-release: No such file or directory
All I did was add the following entry in pacman.conf
[endeavouros]
SigLevel = PackageRequired
Include = /etc/pacman.d/endeavouros-mirrorlist
Then created a file named endeavouros-mirrorlist in pacman.d
Then just did a pacman -Syu
I also ran the following;
sudo pacman-key --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com -r 003DB8B0CB23504F
sudo pacman-key --lsign 003DB8B0CB23504F
Then installed
Am I offficially on EndeavourOS now ?
Edit: Oh and I removed the manually created endeavouros-mirrolist file and replaced it with the installed one
I would guess so. I have done this to a couple of Arch ‘metal’ installs, and it works well. In fact I added endeavouros repo to other Arch-based distros too - some of the tools are too good to operate without
Would be interested to hear what troubles were caused by rEFInd - as I mostly use it to avoid troubles! Also - because multi-boot…
sudo pacman -Syyu lsb-release
I hope so cos I’m a little OCD and a Purist (No not an Arch purist) cos I don’t like to do hacks like this usually.
I honestly can’t remember what happened it was a while ago but due to it (rEFInd) being third party update could possibly cause issues?
I only have a dual boot system with Windows and systemd-boot works fine with it.
Thanks it fixed the issue
I know it’s cringe-worthy my above response
Just a little side note, the only DE that is themed is the offline Xfce install, all the online DE installs are untouched theme-wise.
Other packages you might be interested in to install from Endeavour repo (they came as part of the installation when I installed my system (Cinnamon DE)):
eos-log-tool
eos-update-notifier
grub-tools
mkinitcpio-openswap
reflector-simple
