An ArchLinux-based lightweight desktop system (PLEASE READ)

CTKArch is a minimalistic Arch Linux setup (and not a distribution), that comes with a set of carefully selected applications and provides maximum hardware support, exclusively using free open-source software.

It aims at providing the indispensable base applications for a desktop installation, while saving time on the installation process by autoconfiguring the system, in the same way you would have done by hand.

The included applications are chosen among the lighter available, yet keeping the interface user-friendly and the benefits of a rolling-release distribution: CTKArch has become the running proof that this is possible!

IMPORTANT:::
The default mirror is a snapshot of the repositories from the day the live was released. This allows installating packages without having to update the live system (which would be uncomfortable). You just need to comment out or delete the ARM (arm.konnichi.com...) entry at the beginning of /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist to get back to rolling release. That is not advisable on the live system, but you may want to do it after installing, to enjoy rolling-release updates.
