+# Voussoir, an Arch Linux installer and rescue system
+
+Really, it's just an install script and ISO with some extra flair
+
+
+## Building an ISO
+
+From the base of the repository:
+
+```bash
+$ ./mkrepo.sh
+$ sudo ./mkiso.sh
+```
+
+Note, you may wish to clean your pacman cache (`pacman -Scc`) if you want it to
+skip downloading packages from upstream mirrors. 
+
+## Installing from the ISO
+
+Open a terminal and type `sudo install.sh`, follow the prompts.
+
+Once you reboot into your new system, run `sudo setup.sh` to make sure snapshots
+are properly enabled.
+
+## Notes:
+
+Installer assumes you want the entire disk wiped with encrypted btrfs root
+and snapshotting. 
+
+The installer has a lot of prompts especially towards the end where the AUR is
+used more heavily, you should be able to just hit "enter" on them for the most
+part.
+
+All the regular Arch Linux install tools should be available to you if you'd
+like to do something custom instead.
+
+
+## Todo:
+
+Remove the aur building and post install script. Shouldn't be too difficult
+to build the packages into the ISO, but I haven't bothered to yet.
