Archinstall 3.0.14 has been released as the latest stable version of Arch Linux’s menu-based installer, bringing new features and fixing various bugs. One of the notable updates in this release is the introduction of a dialog that allows users to install the UEFI bootloader to removable locations. Additionally, the regex functionality has been improved to remove unnecessary "|" symbols and permit whitespace when validating user input for partition values. This version also prevents the creation of BLS and Limine bootloader entries for fallback initramfs.
Several bugs have been fixed in Archinstall 3.0.14, which include addressing an issue with the --needed argument that was preventing re-installs, correcting the f-string in snapshot debug installations, fixing a problem that resulted in an empty screen during "manual partitioning," and refining the GRUB fallback-from-removable logic. Furthermore, the Snapper-Grub integration has been enhanced to align with how Timeshift manages snapshots.
Users can obtain more details about the changes in this release by checking the release notes on the project’s GitHub page, where they can also download the source tarball. The latest version of Archinstall is already available in Arch Linux’s stable repositories and can be used immediately by updating with the sudo pacman -Sy archinstall command in the terminal. To verify if you have version 3.0.14 installed, use the command archinstall -v.
Notably, Archinstall 3.0.14 will serve as the default installer for the upcoming Arch Linux 2025.12.01 ISO snapshot, set to be released on December 1, 2025, allowing new users to take advantage of its features with fresh installations.
