From 5f32fc60fa6b0017620fee0431c812b53e92cccf Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: carloz Date: Wed, 11 Nov 2026 15:55:06 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] docs: correct encrypted credentials filename Correct the filename in the "Credentials configuration file encryption" section of `README.md`. The instructions refer to an encrypted `user_configuration.json` file when describing the `--creds` argument. However, `--creds` accepts the credentials file, `user_credentials.json`, as also indicated by the surrounding documentation. The implementation defines `USER_CREDS_FILE` as `user_credentials.json` in [`archinstall/lib/args.py`](https://github.com/archlinux/archinstall/blob/2c25540ad56b23922b9bbf44320b3154c0ecfd15/archinstall/lib/args.py#L101).mThis patch corrects that filename only. Tests and Checks I have tested the code. Documentation-only change. The source filename and final Markdown diff were reviewed. No runtime tests were performed. ChatGPT assisted with source-code verification and drafting. Claude Chat independently reviewed the correction and its scope. I reviewed the final change and verified the source references before submission. --- README.md | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/README.md b/README.md index 8d5551d0a8..e7e560ce2c 100644 --- a/README.md +++ b/README.md @@ -84,7 +84,7 @@ By default, all user account credentials are hashed with `yescrypt` and only the This is not possible for disk encryption password which needs to be stored in plaintext to be able to apply it.

When providing an encrypted `user_credentials.json` as a argument with `--creds ` there are multiple ways to provide the decryption key: * Provide the decryption key via the command line argument `--creds-decryption-key ` * Store the encryption key in the environment variable `ARCHINSTALL_CREDS_DECRYPTION_KEY` which will be read automatically
