Hi,
I wrote a simple script that allows you to convert (almost) any VPS to
Arch Linux.

The procedure is very simple, as you an see on a video posted by jx47
(http://jx47.de/posts/20150627_vps2arch.html).

Just do:

# wget git.io/vps2arch
# chmod +x
# ./vps2arch

With the latest version of the script you can also specify mirrors with
the -m option, network system (systemd-networkd, netctl) with -n option
and the bootloader to be installed (grub, syslinux).

OpenVZ is partially supported, because it doesn't work on systemd 220+
and it will enforce systemd 219.
It also enforce netctl as networking system and no bootloader (of course).

Please test and report!
