please be more descriptive

sharp radish
#

This is not a valid schema.

silver musk
#

whats your configuration, what packages do you have installed, what have you tried? the bare minimum

sharp radish
#

Provide references if possible and be more descriptive.

void canopy
#

does ip a show any connections

#

do a lspci | grep Ethernet maybe the card needs a extra module or something

#

your card is on the wiki

#

i send the wrong section, look at 3.8 i think

#

you might have to reboot it or something idk lmao

winter quartz
#

isn't enp4s0 your network connection?

#

try nmcli c up enp4sO

#

shit

#

what about ping google.com

#

ah

#

ifconfig enp4sO up

#

ok wtf

#

arch is so god damn barebone

silver musk
#

should be ipconfig no?

#

not ifconfig

#

well

#

looks like youre missing packages

winter quartz
#

ip link set enp4sO up EDIT

#

there are billions of fucking network managing packages god damn

silver musk
#

yeah, and having just one installed would probably fix this

winter quartz
#

wdym

silver musk
#

do you have NetworkManager installed or something like that

winter quartz
#

nmcli is not found so I suppose not

#

any errors?

#

what about dhclient

silver musk
#

you'll probably have to go back with whatever bootable media and install the necessary packages

winter quartz
#

edited it

#

typo

silver musk
#

since you have no internet connection

winter quartz
#

fucking hell

#

yeah get that arch iso booted up

silver musk
#

did you install arch through the official manual, archinstall, or a guide?

winter quartz
#

still not certain about that

silver musk
#

did you follow this?

#

im guessing not since the manual says: "That may include installing suitable network management software."

#

no its not

#

ok

#

look at the manual

#

make sure you've done everything else

#

then do that

#

dont skip steps

#

no

#

thats not what i said

winter quartz
#

chrooting into your installation would help I think

silver musk
#

just double-check you've followed all of the other steps

fringe ore
#

did you install arch with the script?

#

oh okay

#

try usb tethering to see if it works or not

silver musk
#

i think it was a manual install and they just missed the network config step

#

patience is a virtue

winter quartz
#

this whole installation process was a pain in the ass I'm telling you haha

#

hours of fighting with the bootloader and whatnot

#

I'm surprised we even got here this quickly

fringe ore
#

you just have to copy paste commands

winter quartz
#

I'm still confused - Why did archinstall not work? Did you get errors? Why did it not work

silver musk
#

it’s ok, arch is very complicated for beginners and there’s not really a good accessible way to get going with arch other than banging your head against the wall

#

you can try video guides but often they’re outdated and not relevant

#

archinstall doesn’t work half the time

#

etc etc

winter quartz
#

at this point I'd just recommend installing endeavor os and cleaning up everything you don't want

silver musk
#

LOL

winter quartz
#

it has a graphical installer

#

this is litrearlly the exact same issue

#

same network interface name even

#

chrooting into pacmana hahah

#

mnt /dev/sda3 /mnt

#

arch-chroot /mnt iirc

#

when

#

when did what not work

fringe ore
#

.

winter quartz
#

standalone chroot is a pain in the ass to use so I'd rather you used arch-chroot for simplicity

#

WTF#

#

I'm stupid

#

mount /dev/sda3 /mnt

#

I'm losing braincells

#

🐔

#

no deeper meaning behind this

#

🫘

#

no

#

it needs access to the filesystem

#

so arch-chroot /mnt

#

/dev/xyz is only a device which you can't access directly

#

any errors?

#

nice

#

pacman -S dhcpcd

#

systemctl enable dhcpcd.service dhcpcd@interface.service

#

what

#

I'm not sure if you need the bottom one as well
@fringe ore you into this?

winter quartz
#

ok then pacman -S dhclient

#

systemctl enable dhclient@interface.service

#

systemctl enable systemd-networkd systemd-resolved just in case

#

try it yeah

#

after this I'll need to head out for breakfast

#

let er rip

#

OK I'll be back in 30-60 minutes

#

I hope it's working now

winter quartz
#

very nice

#

❤️

fringe ore
#

... solved

Thank you

manic trout
#

I think what y'all wanted to do was sudo ip link set enp4s0 up lol

winter quartz
winter quartz
#

the dhcp thingies were not initialised

#

the services were turned off and the packages not installed

manic trout
#

Then it should be as easy as starting dhcpd

#

sudo systemctl start dhcpd.service

#

If you were missing the service, y'all did the right thing

winter quartz
#

it's solved regardless

split basin
#

Did you have them install dhcpcd and dhclient?

#

You aren't supposed to install both of them

manic trout
#

Becuz it's weird that min arch install has no networking. He must've done it manually and skipped some steps
