curl -ko ./raspimg https://raw.githubusercontent.com/vidalinux/raspi/main/raspimg chmod +x ./raspimg
mount image to /mnt/temp without binding directories:
./raspimg mount $(date +%F)-artixlinux-aarch64.img do you want to bind /dev /proc /sys /pkg directories now : no
remove image contents from:
rm -rf /mnt/temp/*
decompress archlinux arm file to /mnt/temp:
tar xvf armtix-openrc-20240730.tar.xz -C /mnt/temp
