  ```bash

  # mkdir /mnt/boot/efi

  # mount /dev/mmcblk1p1 /mnt/boot/efi

  # mkdir /mnt/boot/efi/EFI/BOOT

  # cp -v /run/hyperiso/bootmnt/EFI/BOOT/bootx64.efi /mnt/boot/efi/EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.EFI
  ```

17. # arch-chroot /mnt

18. # nano /etc/locale.gen (uncomment es_ES.UTF-8)

19. # locale-gen

20. Enable root logon via ssh

24. # grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --bootloader-id=GRUB --recheck --efi-directory=/boot/efi

25. # cp /usr/share/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/grub.mo /boot/grub/locale/es.mo

26. # grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

27. Build botia32.efi (necessary in ASUSx205TA)

  `# grub-mkstandalone -d /usr/lib/grub/i386-efi/ -O i386-efi --modules="part_gpt part_msdos" --fonts="unicode" --locales="uk" --themes="" -o "/boot/efi/EFI/GRUB/bootia32.efi" "boot/grub/grub.cfg=/boot/grub/grub.cfg" -v`

  `# cp -v /boot/efi/EFI/GRUB/bootia32.efi /boot/efi/EFI/BOOT/BOOTIA32.EFI`

28. Create swap file:

    • # fallocate -l 2G /swapfile
    • # chmod 600 /swapfile
    • # mkswap /swapfile
    • # echo '/swapfile none swap sw 0 0' | tee -a /etc/fstab
