I just switched to pure systemd. The transition was mostly smooth with an exception to dhcpcd. Despite looking at the supposed fix on the bug tracker linked from the systemd wiki page as well as turning to Google for a possible solution, I always seem to get the following result when I check the dhcpcd@eth0 status:
Oct 07 19:34:37 archlinux systemd[1]: Starting dhcpcd on eth0...
Oct 07 19:34:37 archlinux dhcpcd[818]: version 5.6.2 starting
Oct 07 19:34:37 archlinux dhcpcd[818]: eth0: waiting for carrier
Oct 07 19:35:07 archlinux systemd[1]: Failed to start dhcpcd on eth0.
A few things to note:
Manually running dhcpcd as root works. However, starting the service fails and enabling it at boot yields the above error.
/etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/ currently contains the services cronie, lm_sensors, ntpd, remote-fs.target, and syslog-ng. I disabled dhcpcd@eth0 at boot time to see if I could start it manually, but to no avail.
/etc/modules-load.d/r8169.conf enables r8169, but that doesn't seem to help.
Possible solutions from https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/30235 yield no success

Just out of curiosity, what does "lspci" report your ethernet card as?
Edit: I ask because when I did my initial installation on my new computer, my network timed out over and over again. It did eventually connect, but I cancelled the net install after an hour. Upon further investigation, I found I had a Realtek RTL8111/8168B, which requires the r8168 package. After that installation took <10 min.

That's what I've got

So download the r8168 package, and blacklist the r1869 module.

Got it, thanks!

Yeah, it was quite frusturating for me until I realized what I was doing wrong. Essentially, you are installing the realtek provided module. But hey, it works!

Darn it... I did as you said and still getting same results. I installed r8168, blacklisted r8169, even added r8168.conf to /etc/modules-load.d/ but still nothing. Attempting to start the service still times out.

Sorry man, from here, I do not know because I do not use a wired connection. Personally I am a netcfg user.

Nevermind. After doing 'ip addr' after running dhcpcd, it was saying eth1. So I plugged my cable into eth0's port. Bingo!

I guess at least you are now using the right kernel module...

Actually r8169 works just fine.
