* What I did was the above, I partitioned the USB as follows:

> parted --script /dev/sda mklabel gpt
> parted --script --align=optimal /dev/sda mkpart ESP fat32 1MiB 551MiB
> parted --script --align=optimal /dev/sda mkpart NAME ext4 552 MiB 100%
> parted --script /dev/sda set 1 boot on
> mkfs.vfat -n ASAHI /dev/sda1
> mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda2

Then I git cloned the alarm-builder and set ROOT\_UUID and EFI\_UUID to the USB UUIDs (`lsblk -o name,uuid,fstype,mountpoint` gives info) in `build.sh`. I also removed building asahi-desktop and uefi-minimal to save time. Also this should be done on an archo distro since it supports the commands such as pacstrap in the build.sh file. I did it from an asahi desktop installation.

Then I mounted sda1 onto mnt and copied the EFI folder (under /esp/ in the images/asahi-base directory of the asahi-alarm-builder directory) onto sda1. After this I unmounted sda1 and replaced it with sda2 on mnt, mounted the root.img locally onto a directory in Desktop to make sure I'm using the proper build data and copied those contents onto sda2.

After setting up as such it booted but now I'm looking why it's throwing me a user name / password screen.
