[QUESTION] Systemd-boot on ALCI scripts.

[technical]

I want to add systemd-boot to Alci. I've tried to adapt EndeavourOS ISO build scripts, but some parts of it are much beyond my ability, specially what I think is a creation of an EFI image to be "flashed" in the ESP partition.
Now that we can choose systemd-boot into Arcolinux ISOs (openSUSE Tumbleweed also made this very same movement), are there any plans to have it also in Alci scripts?

It is not on my planning.

Adding systemd-boot support into ALCI wasn't difficult to do.

Look at the config here https://github.com/arcolinux/arco-calam ... stemd.conf

Put that into your own alci-calamares-config package in your own github repository

etc/calamares/modules/bootloader.conf

Get a copy of https://github.com/arch-linux-calamares ... g/PKGBUILD

Modify the url inside there so that it points to your own github repository.
Build the package, which generates a corresponding .zst file.

Copy this package into https://github.com/arch-linux-calamares ... epo/x86_64
Run update_repo.sh

Then read https://github.com/arch-linux-calamares ... acman.conf

#you can create packages and put them on your local repo
#the folder should be on your homedirectory with the name alci_local_repo
#see uploaded example -there is a copy of the local repo in your folder
#Copy/paste it to your homefolder
#update the packages database
#Change the name erik to your own username

#Your local repository
#[alci_local_repo]
#SigLevel = Optional TrustedOnly
#Server = file:///home/erik/$repo/$arch

Update the pacman.conf file to include your local repo.
Comment out grub package.
Then run the installation script.
