How would I go about making a custom ISO installation for Artix?

I'd like to make a custom ISO with it's own pre-configurations such as a custom desktop and a custom browser with plugins. How would I achieve this?

Does this allow exact pre-configuration or does it create an install list?

So you can only use lxqt for a desktop environment in ISO creation? This guide is a bit unclear

I'm getting a bunch of errors when running the commands in a root terminal and in a regular one, one of these being

error: failed retrieving file 'multilib.db'

But when I run sudo pacman -Sy all repos sync fine.

I don't know if this has something to do with the multilib repository ?

Or with gcc ?
Code: [Select]
$ pacman -Ss multilib
system/gcc 12.2.0-1 (base-devel) [installé]

Copy /etc/pacman.conf to ~/.config/artools/pacman-default.conf and enable non-default repositories.
