The October release of the Arch Linux install medium is available for
[Download][1] and can be used for new installs or as a rescue system. It
contains a set of updated packages and the following notable changes:

  * systemd is used to boot up the live system.

  * initscripts are no longer available on the live system but are still
installed by default on the target system. This is likely to change in the near
future.

  * EFI boot and setup has been simplified.

  * gummiboot is used to display a menu on EFI systems.

  * The following new packages are available on the live system: ethtool,
fsarchiver, gummiboot-efi, mc, partclone, partimage, refind-efi, rfkill, sudo,
testdisk, wget, xl2tpd
