Existing Arch Users

If you already have installed Arch, you can easily upgrade to Parabola by doing several simple things. First, you have to download our own mirrorlist! We can guarantee that you'll be happy with that.

pacman -U
    http://repo.parabolagnulinux.org/free/core/os/any/pacman-mirrorlist-libre-20101017-1-any.pkg.tar.gz

It is also proposed that you clean up your package cache, so that your old packages don't get mixed up with the Parabola ones. It's as easy as

pacman -Scc
.

Next step is to force pacman to update the databases. You may already know that, but if you don't, all you have to do is

pacman
    -Syy
.

At this point, you have to install the libre kernel. Easy step, thanks to pacman:
pacman -Sf kernel26
. Oh, don't forget the headers!
pacman -Sf kernel26-headers
.

It seems like the only thing remaining is a

pacman
    -Suu
. Reboot and say hello to your brand new Parabola system!

BitTorrent Download (recommended)

If you can spare the bytes, please leave the client open after your download is finished, so you can seed it back to others. A web-seed capable client is recommended for fastest download speeds.
