    TUI stuff is so underrated. I'd gladly run them exclusively.

    Don't they provide Live ISOs with an GUI installer?

    You are right. Official Live ISOs have gui installers, I tried it once and in my opinion it lacks some features. I wanted perfect solution for me which also can be solution for someone else. I think my script contain a lot of useful stuff. Ive seen theres way to modify gui installer, but it didnt came to my mind anytime. Writing this script gave me alot of bash knowledge which for suer will be useful. Thanks for reading this :D.

    I never got booster to work. Will try.

    Edit: is there an option to not encrypt root partition?

    It's nice to try booster, its so damn fast. Script will make it work for you :D.

    Script is fully interactive, you can choose not to encrypt root partition. You can try it out but don't press yes on last page because it could start installation, every option is tui is just setting variable.

    Fantastic! I'd migrated a laptop from Arch to Artix before, and I've been wanting to do my desktop. I suppose þis program is for new installs?
