Arch Linux Install Speedrun Any% Scriptless 0:55.06 *WR Depending on How You Time it*

So I got a 0:55.06. Timed without the boot of the iso. Timed from the first character typed (f) to the moment the tty shows up on the install.

Anyone who wants to host/make a website to host speedrun times or do something more formal I would be glad to collaborate just comment your discord username here ig and I'll talk with you.

Commands:

fdisk /dev/sda
n
[a ton of enters]
w
mount /dev/sda1 /mnt
cd /etc/pac-cache
pacstrap -U /mnt *

For some reason the fstab isn't needed so that provides less stress (I started typing it but ran ctrl+U). I created a custom arch iso with the 113 packages installed on a minimal arch install (pacstrap /mnt base linux grub) cached in /etc/pac-cache. One time save is to have a better dir for pac-cache and/or finding packages that aren't needed for an install and removing them.

Making the iso is pretty easy.
1. Do a minimal arch install and send the list of all installed packages to a file
3. ctrl c before it installs but after every package is downloaded
4. build the arch iso. should be about 1gb.
5. Enjoy your arch iso that increases the speed of the install

Damn that was really fast, can you do the same on Gentoo?

unable to replicate, run is very sus
Edit: I may have judged too soon.
Edit 2: Okay, so this run *does not* seem to be faked... however.
It still does not run properly in UEFI mode, sadly. But if using a BIOS, however, it does function.
Sorry for judging too soon!
Edit 3: Although, I do think this run is still illegitimate due to it's use of a customized iso, but still, good work!
