If a critical mirror is down, the whole Arch Server Setup fails. Looking into the mirrors that are set up by the script it only picks the closest servers.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Choose the Arch Server Setup option in linutil
Follow the process answering all the prompts
After setting the closest mirrors, the script tries to download packages
If there happens to be a mirror that is down (Error 404), the install fails
Expected behavior
Arch Server should be installed without issue.
Maybe add additional mirrors that are known to be reliable even if they may not be as fast.
