We assume you're going to use the Raspberry Pi itself for setting up an Arch Linux environment. In order to do this properly and safely, you'll need 2 micro sd cards and a USB to micro sd card adapter.

# Setup an Ubuntu SD Card # Setup an Ubuntu SD Card
The first step is to setup a basic Ubuntu boot environment for the Raspberry Pi, we will use this to boot strap (initialize) the Arch Linux micro sd card. This Ubuntu micro sd card can also be used to recover a broken Arch Linux system if necessary.

1. Download Ubuntu from their main [download site](https://ubuntu.com/download/raspberry-pi/thank-you?version=20.04&architecture=arm64+raspi) and flash it to the sd card. There are a lot of guides on how to do this online. 1.

That should do it for the bootstrapping process. You can now shutdown the Ubuntu environment via ```systemctl poweroff```, swap the micro sd cards and boot into the Arch Linux environment.

You should not need the Ubuntu micro sd card at this point unless you need to recover or fix a broken Arch Linux installation. You should not need the Ubuntu micro sd card at this point unless you need to recover or fix a broken Arch Linux installation.
