New install some minor issues

04 February 2018, 14:57:15

No real major problems with install of Artix went via lxqt iso. Reading guide from wiki everything installed to new partition without a problem then went on to install extra packages under chroot.

NetworkManager package listed on wiki is networkmanager (simple name change) to really get the most from it you do need network-manager-applet.

Until you add required groups to user it is difficult to get wireless network up and running (something I missed until later config stage)

Does NM need dhcpcd? can bring wireless interface up but cannot connect to outside world.

Look and feel are great, missing a browser (that would really help during install)

I second the addition of a browser to the iso. Installing Firefox or Chromium while booted in the liveCD environment just results in complaints of missing libraries so I usually wind up using links instead which is slightly irritating but works.

Got Artix up and running installed, added dhcp and was good to go. Built a new Artix based iso based on ArchBang. Once again sourceforge is down and I really want to find an alternative way to host iso files.

While I may not update isos on a regular basis, was getting requests for an systemd free version.
