Hello, iam in the making of artix install script. I start with setting variables in dialog like bootloader=“refind” and etc. but when i do artix-chroot into chroot.sh script variables are gone.

right now i have something like this:

cp ${pwd}execution/chroot.sh /mnt/mnt &&
            USER="$USER" USER_PASSWORD1="$USER_PASSWORD1" USER_PASSWORD2="$USER_PASSWORD2"\
            ROOT_PASSWORD1="$ROOT_PASSWORD1" ROOT_PASSWORD2="$ROOT_PASSWORD2"\
            BOOTLOADER="$BOOTLOADER" SUPERUSER="$SUPERUSER" HOSTNAME="$HOSTNAME"\
            LOCALE="$LOCALE" ENCRYPTION="$ENCRYPTION" ROOT="$ROOT" ESP="$ESP"\
            KERNEL="$KERNEL" UCODE="$UCODE"
		artix-chroot /mnt bash -c '/mnt/chroot.sh && execute_root' 

But it does not really work, tried also some things like:

# create array of variables to pass to part 2
var_export=($formfactor $threadsminusone $gpu $boot $disk0 $username $userpassword $timezone $swap $intel_vaapi_driver $res_x $res_y_half)

# initiate part 2
mount --bind /root/artix-install-script /mnt/mnt
artix-chroot /mnt /mnt/chrootInstall.sh "${var_export[@]}"

and then in chroot.sh

# Importing Variables
args=("$@")
formfactor=${args[0]}
threadsminusone=${args[1]}
gpu=${args[2]}
boot=${args[3]}
disk=${args[4]}
username=${args[5]}
userpassword=${args[6]}
timezone=${args[7]}
swap=${args[8]}
intel_vaapi_driver=${args[9]}
res_x=${args[10]}
res_y_half=${args[11]}

still not they best way, kinda messy and buggy.

THANKS FOR HELP!

    It would be more secure if the credentials are in an in memory SQLite Database but that would require you to use something other than the shell. You would need to do a hardware key or have the user do a bootstrap password or have an API that uses a public key to authenticate the remote process passing the credentials
