Default Arch Linux on MacBook Pro Retina 2014

I'm going to describe steps needed to have the following system: Dual-boot with Arch Linux / Mac OS X Boot manager UEFI Gummiboot (simple, can handle several kernels easily) Full disk encryption (Mac OS X and Arch Linux) LVM support Suspend to disk using a swapfile Settings for a great battery life (~09h30) I keep the Mac OS X partition, to be able to update the firmware later. Incredibly detailed 'blog post' (I would call it a website) on how to get, well, Arch Linux running on the MacBook Pro Retina 2014. I know Arch is quite popular among OSNews readers, so I figured this would be of interest to some of you. The article is a work-in-progress, so more information is sure to follow.
