# Archbox # Archbox
Installs Arch Linux inside a chroot enviroment Installs Arch Linux inside a chroot enviroment.
## Why? ## Why?
Ever since I'm running some niche distros like Void, Solus, I had a problem finding what softwares I need in their not-so-large repositories, also I don't like how flatpak and snap works. so i decided to create an Arch Linux chroot enviroment everytime I distrohop. Why Arch Linux? They have a really, really good repositories, oh and don't mention how big AUR is.

### Entering chroot enviroment
To enter chroot, do ```archbox --enter```.
### Executing commands in chroot enviroment
To execute commands inside chroot envirotment, do ```archbox <command>```.
for example, to update chroot, do ```archbox sudo pacman -Syu```.
### Automount filesystem
If you use runit, copy archbox folder inside ```runit/``` and symlink it to whatever your distro store running runit services, if you don't use runit, you may need to create your own init script, or create a cronjob that runs on boot.

#### Pulseaudio
If the audio doesn't work, comment ```mount -R /var/lib/dbus $CHROOT/var/lib/dbus``` in init script and start pulseaudio inside chroot instead, do ```archbox pulseaudio```.
