README: install with wget -qO- https://federated.sh | bash
shellcheck / shellcheck (push) Failing after 21s

federated.sh redirects wget and curl to install.sh on Gitea, and
browsers to the Install page, so the command is short enough to type.
Opening Gitea to copy the long command is no longer a step; link
install.sh for anyone who wants to read it first.

When Arch and Gnome have been successfully installed, you log in to the system then...
1) Open the "Web" browser then navigate to https://gitea.federated.computer and click "Explore" and "CoreDesktop". Scroll down and you'll find the command to enter to kick off installation.
2) Open a terminal, then enter the following command (you copied it from Gitea in step #1):
1) Open a terminal (the "Console" app), then enter:
```
wget -qO- https://gitea.federated.computer/Federated_Computer/coredesktop/raw/branch/main/install.sh | bash
wget -qO- https://federated.sh | bash
```
3) Enter your password when asked, once at the start. Be patient: it takes a while.
federated.sh sends wget to [install.sh](https://gitea.federated.computer/Federated_Computer/coredesktop/src/branch/main/install.sh) here on Gitea, so you can read what it runs first. In a browser, it opens the [Install page](https://coredesktop.computer/install/).
2) Enter your password when asked, once at the start. Be patient: it takes a while.
First it checks the machine. It stops if this isn't Arch, if you run it as root, if your user can't use sudo, or if there's no internet. It asks before going on if there's less than about 60 GB free, or if / isn't on btrfs (then there are no snapshots before updates, and only reinstalling Arch with btrfs changes that). If the login screen isn't GNOME's, or sound goes through PulseAudio, it offers to switch to GNOME's login screen and to PipeWire.
4) At the end, it offers to run `configure`, which connects to your Federated Core, sets up backups and signs you in to the AI agents (see "Configure" below). If the install brought in a newer kernel, it asks you to reboot first; run `configure` after the reboot.
