Description

Bootstraps a base Arch Linux system into a target directory or environment. It is useful for containers, chroots, recovery work, and building minimal Arch installations.

Bootstrapping writes many system files and depends on trusted package sources. Verify target paths carefully to avoid damaging the host system.
