Asahi arch CLI wifi setup M1 Mac

[sly edge]

I totally forgot that computers don’t magically connect to wifi…. And now I’m super stuck.

Asahi arch CLI wifi setup M1 Mac

[slate sparrow]

Can you see if "iwctl" and see if that works?

[sly edge]

Waiting for iwd to start…

[slate sparrow]

Can you send a pic?

[sly edge]

It’s literally just the prompt saying “waiting for iwd to start…”

[slate sparrow]

Hmmmm

[slate sparrow]

Try "nmcli device wifi list"

Also do Ctrl+C

[sly edge]

Nmcli: command not found

[slate sparrow]

hmmmm

Which mac are you using?

[sly edge]

Studio.

Err mini

Idk why I said studio

[slate sparrow]

Ohhhh

I don't think that's supported

If I'm not wrong asahi is still in alpha

[sly edge]

No it is

[slate sparrow]

Ohhh

Hmmm it should work

[sly edge]

I know the mini is supported, but idk if they expected a newb to try this

[slate sparrow]

Do you have a Ethernet cable?

[sly edge]

No and I really can’t get one to here

[slate sparrow]

Ohhhh

[sly edge]

If I need to try and bail to macOS that’s fine

That should still be possible, just a PITA

[slate sparrow]

I guess try this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B9uJxvdVFBE&ab_channel=NobelTech

I don't have a mac (My hackintosh is a thing) so I don't know much.

[sly edge]

Yeah gonna bail and try again with the gui

Thanks

[slate sparrow]

Welcome

"waiting for iwd to start" you need to enable iwd.service

sudo systemctl enable --now iwd should do

[slate sparrow]

[fast flint]

Please follow the Standard Litany when asking a question:
• What was your environment? What was your operating system, configuration?
• What did you do? What did you run or test? Where?
• What actually happened? What were the exact results, complete log contents, exact error messages?
• What did you expect? What were you aiming to achieve? What result were you looking for?

Vague or superficial questions will yield vague or superficial answers. False information leads to false solutions.

When requesting support, please include specific, detailed, and relevant information about your system and issue.

We need such information because we don't know what it's like inside your system, and it's unlikely that we know much about the issue you're facing. The more information you can provide, the better we can help you with your specific issue.

Some examples of frequently requested information include the steps you took before your issue occurred (such as system updates), the steps you took to resolve your issue and their results, and your environment (such as your display manager or desktop environment).
