It's been years since I have used it. My question is: can we finally setup some default sensible BTRFS subvolumes in the "manual partitioning" mode? Or does it still only work in the "autogenerate partitions" thingie?
No shit I think I happened to use it like right around the time it released😅
Current Arch ISO is from November 1, so you likely used the old version (unless you used pacman -Syu before you used in the installer).
Doesn't pacman Syy before installing it give me the latest version of the script when I'm in the live environment ?
No, you are never specifying to actually upgrade the package with the 'u' flag. Running pacman -Sy archinstall would upgrade the package, since it would first refresh the package cache then reinstall the latest version.
Also, there's not really a benefit to using 2 'y's but it does add some extra stress to the package mirrors, so I would avoid doing that.
