There is something strange. I went through and uncommented all the US mirrors, but now I get an error message with a Chinese mirror and that mirror is commented. It is mirror6.bjtu.edu.cn

And the error message is ...?

Re: [SOLVED]mirrorlist changed

My cursor doesn't work in Virtualbox. Even if I was using a regular system with a terminal, I don't think the cursor would work inside it. So, doesn't it make it harder to cut and paste the error message?

error: failed retrieving file 'community.db' and 'extra.db' failed to connect 2001 more numbers, network is unreachable

Can you connect to the Internet from Arch running in VB?

Re: [SOLVED]mirrorlist changed

Karol,

     I thought I was connected to the internet. I just get error messages from a Chinese server that has a pound sign in front of it, which makes no sense to me. I entered dhcpcd eth0 and it said:

dhcpcd already running on PID 374
