Arch Install

Here is a collection of things that I have developed for Arch Linux (and Arch Linux based distros). I have also included links to some of the resources that I use.

In This Repository

• Linux install notes (would not recommend them as an actual guide, but have included a list of problems/solutions that I have come across; might come in useful)
• Linux install script (created with help from the resources below)

Still To Add

• unzip (extra)
• opencv
• cmake
