  1. Download image Manjaro-ARM-minimal-rpi4-23.02.img.xz
  2. Extract the image and burn to your favorite SD card to feed it to your RP4.
tar xvf Manjaro-ARM-minimal-rpi4-23.02.img.xz
sudo dd if=Manjaro-ARM-minimal-rpi4-23.02.img of=/dev/mmcblk0 status=progress 

Note: while time passes. I choose to use the minimal implementations of Dl'd OSes because in the dressed ones, there are always the chance of getting something you don't want or need to build the specific implementation. And there is more to update as time passes. The unknown still exists in the minimal images, but the chance is less. That and if something goes wrong, the chance for you to blame yourself is greater in a minimalist implementation. It is all a matter of control and self-deprecation that drives my choices. Oh, while the burn is finishing, I need to hook up the RPi to power, monitor, keyboard and mouse. Back in a flash -- see what I did there.

  1. First burning of the image failed so I'm going to try with Manjaro-ARM-xfce-rpi4-23.02.img.xz
