Hi. I had the same problem for the last few days. I just figured out that it seemed that something went wrong (didn't complete) in the 'Install Packages' step. Rerun this step immediately after the error and the install could continue normally.
Update:
I just realized that doing the above will NOT for sure solve the problem, but it's something to try. Anyway, you should see a lot of:Installing a ...

Correct, I read somewhere else that the packages not installing correctly (ie at all) is having the arch kernel already installed in /boot, although not the best solution, during the install I reformated my /boot partition and it fixed my error of none of the packages installing correctly. However if you do get the "failed to import network settings" and some of the packages have already been installed, try redownloading the packages again, and try a different mirror.

Even with zero errors I reran the install packages portion and can now continue.

]]>I'm trying to install (x64) arch on an encrypted partition following the guide at:
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Sys … r_dm-crypt
I'm inside a corporate firewall so before I launch /arch/setup I'm running:
export http_proxy="http://my.proxy.ip:port"
export ftp_proxy="http://my.proxy.ip:port"
then within the installer I configure eth0 for DHCP. This all works fine and the packages are fetched correctly during installation. However whenever I try to "configure system" it always reports:
Automactic network settings propagation failed.
Failed to import current network settings into target system
Any suggestions on how to get around this error? I've tried rebooting and re-running the setup several times but I always get this error.
Thanks in advance.
