OK, i understood that this part of the installation is already running inside of the PRoot, and that there is no [vi|nano] in /usr/bin of the arch installation.

@smu Thank you for opening this issue. The script uses Arch components once installed since certain functions need to be performed inside Arch when it is running, like locale-gen
and pacman -Syu
. Both editors should reside in your Arch installation:
[root@localhost home]# which vi
/usr/bin/vi
[root@localhost home]# l /usr/bin/vi
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root 2 Sep 18 2015 /usr/bin/vi -> ex
[root@localhost home]# which nano
/usr/bin/nano
[root@localhost home]# l /usr/bin/nano
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root 254016 Nov 22 00:59 /usr/bin/nano
[root@localhost home]# ex
[root@localhost home]# vi
[root@localhost home]# nano
You can run Arch Linux in Termux by using startarch
even though the system is not configured. Please submit a screenshot of your Arch login with ls -al
.
Without an i686 nor a Chromebook, there is still much we can do to help people with this device out. So if you can provide the following, this should help us out:
1 uname -mo
2 getprop ro.product.cpu.abi
3 getprop ro.product.device
4 ls -al ~/arch
Also login to Arch and see which editors are available. Important setupTermuxArch.sh
was rewritten to improve Chromebook detection just a couple of days age. Are you using the latest version of setupTermuxArch.sh
?
from termuxarch.
Thanks for your reply. Yes, I use a recent version of setupTermuxArch.sh from git (06b7b7f).
vi|nano are not installed within arch (see the attached screenshot).
Please find below the requested information:
$ uname -mo
i686 Android
$ getprop ro.product.cpu.abi
x86
$ getprop ro.product.device
cyan_cheets
$ ls -al ~/arch/

@smu Thank you for your time and quick reply. I have a couple of questions which will hopefully resolve this matter:
1 Is the script still stating, "Detected i686 Android Operating System."? It should be stating, "Detected i686 Chromebook" on your device.
2 Which editors does archlinux-bootstrap-2017.03.01-i686.tar.gz
install? Possibly a slightly older image is in order?
A work around might be pacman -S nano vi
when i686 is detected, and then running the installed editors. I would prefer to use the editors that come with archlinux-bootstrap-2017.03.01-i686.tar.gz
.
Also, where is your default download
directory on your Chromebook in Termux? The default directory where your web browser downloads to on Chromebook from the Termux veiwpoint. This information will assist in https://sdrausty.github.io/TermuxArch/docs/install install method #3, "Download from web browser link install".
from termuxarch.
OK, I did a fresh installation with the current git version after deleting the existing arch/ directory.
- The installation still states "Detected i686 Android Operating System"
- As far as I can see, there is not a single editor available in the bootstrab archive. At least no one I know (there are about 600 programs under
/usr/bin
). The editor is not the only problem. For instance,sed
is missing as well, therefore /bin/locale-gen also produces an error during installation.
Regarding the work around. I think the problem is, that the mirrorlist needs to be configured first, before pacman
can be used. I solved this by editing the mirrorlist from "outside" (i.e., before entering the PRoot). Still, the bootstrab archive seems to be very limited and I had a number of problems with the archive keys before the installation suceeded.
I do not really now, where the default download
directory exists. On a chromebook, there is a download directory in chrome os, which is available in Termux in /data/data/com.termux/files/home/storage/downloads
after termux-setup-storage
has been executed.
This is the directory, where e.g. chrome running on chrome OS places the downloads.
Moreover, there is a download directory in the home folder (/data/data/com.termux/files/home/downloads
).

@smu awesome reply. Thank you.
1 Detection message wants refinement, both
detectsystem2 () and detectsystem2p () in https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdrausty/TermuxArch/master/scripts/files/necessaryfunctions.sh
2 Editing i686 Arch setup scripts wants editing from within Termux, not Arch. This should migrate to general install. Probably in finishsetup () in https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sdrausty/TermuxArch/master/scripts/files/archsystemconfigs.sh
Regarding downloads directory:
ls -al ~/storage/
result from your Chromebook is requested for more information regarding simplification of https://sdrausty.github.io/TermuxArch/docs/install option 3.

1 This commit 29d52df fixes system detection for Chromebook.
2 This commit b19c64f finishes a series of commits that resolves this issue by relying on Termux for editing of Arch Linux configuration files instead of editors in the newly installed system.
If these modifications do not work for you @smu, please reopen this issue.

from termuxarch.
Thank you. Is tested the bugfix with the recent version from github and can confirm that vim is found now. However, I will report a new issue regarding sed
.
from termuxarch.
using the latest script as of a few hours ago. vi isn't found. i'm using a chromebook pixelbook. any advice?
from termuxarch.
@wulvyrn You shouldn't need vi
as it's available in busybox through Termux. Where exactly does vi
fail? Can you post some output? To install vim
in Arch Linux use pacman -S vim
.
from termuxarch.
pacman doesn't work as it cannot update. will try and fix that first.
