Description:
I really would like to preseed my ArchLinux installation like it's possible with Debian.
This would really ease unattended virtual machine deployment, e.g. with virt-install (kvm/libvirt).
Since AIF (Arch Installation Framework) is deprecated, one can at least write an installation script in bash and maybe "inject" it into the installation image (virt-install has a parameter called "inject-initrd", but I don't know if this is helpful in this case).
Any recommendation regarding this issue welcome.

Regards,
Jonas

Would customizing ArchISO fit your needs? https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Archiso
You can have a script run automatically when the system starts, e.g., by installing a OneShot systemd service for it.
