According to mattias: # so /arch/setup are replaced by packstrap correct? Mostly correct. /arch/setup is replaced by arch-install-scripts, which include pacstrap, genfstab and arch-chroot. More info about how to use the Arch install scripts to bootstrap an Arch system, either from the install media or from an existing system is available from the installation guide at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Installation_guide ~Kyle
