In this terminal recording it is shown how to create the partitions that will be used to install Arch Linux using the CLI program fdisk. The disk hierarchy at the end of the video is the following:

  • /dev/sda: The 512GB internal SSD (LITEON CV1-8B512)
  • /dev/sda1: The 1GB EFI System Partition (ESP) where the EFI bootloaders will be stored.
  • /dev/sda2: The 2GB Linux boot partition where the Linux boot files will be stored (GRUB).
  • /dev/sda3: The Linux Unified Key Setup (LUKS) that will hold the encrypted data of the system.
