Re: Internet after install arch

Have a look at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Be … cessary.29 , that should give you some ideas on where to go from here.

Re: Internet after install arch

I had trouble getting wifi to work, but if here's what I did:

Download wifi-select and its dependencies on another computer, stick them on the flash drive, and mount the drive under Arch. Copy the .pkg.tar.xz files (or whatever other format they may be) to /var/cache/pacman/pkg/, and then run

pacman -S wifi-select

then

wifi-select wlan0

and in a couple of seconds your router ought to show up.

Re: Internet after install arch

Get the output of "ifconfig" and see what it shows. If its nothing, then do "sudo ifconfig eth0 up" and that should bring your first wired ethernet connection up. Then run "sudo dhcpd eth0" and that should grab a dhcp lease on it for you.

Or better yet, use ip:
