# Lenovo Yoga 6 13ALC7 This repo is a documentation of how I installed Arch and got all the drivers for the Yoga 6, to make it work as if it was native. Since I got the [touchpad issues](https://www.reddit.com/r/Lenovo/comments/yzs5fq/faulty_touchpad_tried_everything_to_fix_it_and_i/), I'll need this once I get it fixed.

# Archinstaller loadkeys ca ## Partionning with [cryptsetup](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Dm-crypt/Encrypting_an_entire_system#LUKS_on_a_partition) ### Encrypting root partition ``` $ cryptsetup -y -v luksFormat --type luks1 /dev/nvme0n1p? $ cryptsetup open /dev/nvme0n1p? root $ mkfs.btrfs /dev/mapper/root $ mount /dev/mapper/root /mnt ``` ### Mounting boot : ``` $ mount --mkdir /dev/nvme0n1p1 /mnt/boot ``` ### Installing packages on the device ``` $ pacstrap -K /mnt base linux-firmware linux amd-ucode patch dkms kmod btrfs-progs grub os-prober ntfs-3g efibootmgr efivar iwd nano sudo texinfo man-db man-pages ``` ## Preparing for chroot ``` $ genfstab -U /mnt >> /mnt/etc/fstab $ arch-chroot /mnt ``` # Chroot in Installed Arch ``` $ ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Montreal /etc/localtime $ hwclock --systohc $ echo matt-laptop > /etc/hostname $ passwd ``` ## Localization Uncomment ca_FR.UTF-8 en_CA.UTF-8 en_US.UTF-8 fr_CA.UTF-8 and run ``` $ locale-gen $ echo LANG=en_CA.UTF-8 > /etc/locale.conf $ echo KEYMAP=ca > /etc/vconsole.conf ``` ## Edit /etc/mkinitcpio.conf for LUKS ``` BINARIES=(btrfs) ... HOOKS=(base udev autodetect modconf kms keyboard keymap consolefont block encrypt filesystems fsck) ``` then run ```mkinitpcio -P``` ## Grub install ``` $ grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=/boot --bootloader-id=arch ``` ### Edit /etc/default/grub for LUKS ``` cryptdevice=UUID=??????:root root=/dev/mapper/root ``` make sure the UUID is the actual partition inside the LUKS container and run ```grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg``` we can now reboot to the installed Arch
