My card is an Intel Wi-Fi Link 5100. Intel lists it as supported by the kernel. When I installed arch, I followed the instructions on the WPA Supplicant wiki page, running these commands:
ifconfig wlan0 up
iwconfig essid [myESSID]
wpa_supplicant -B -Dwext -i wlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf
dhcpcd wlan0
where /etc/wpa_supplicant was correctly configured earlier, and I was connected to my WPA2 home network. When I installed Arch, I left alone the base packages and installed wireless_tools, netcfg, and sudo from the base-devel group. Now when I try to bring up my wireless interface with ifconfig wlan0 up, it says "File or directory not found." What could be causing this? Arch seems to know what to do with my hardware until I install. The only text I changed in rc.conf is my hostname.
