Hello BLFS Support Team,

I have been working on this BLFS system called MrrpOS (Book 12.3, SysV). Th=
is is my second problem sent via email. Recently I have switched from manua=
l wpa_supplicant and dhcpcd init scripts to NetworkManager (1.50.0), but I =
am facing some trouble in doing so. The loopback interface lo works (set up=
 externally by an init script) but eth0 and wlan0 are shown as unavailable.



My device does not have Ethernet plugged in, that maybe the cause for eth0 =
being unavailable. But, wlan0 is stated as unavailable as well.

Please let me know any file contents, configurations, directory listings an=
d other information required.









(=E2=80=A6)







Some other info:

The same devices work as usual with wpa_supplicant and dhcpcd via init scri=
pts.

Probably not a driver issue as both wext and nl80211 are installed.

I am not using iw, I am using iwconfig.

Ping obviously gives "network unreachable."


I maybe missing out on a BLFS step, but it is not clear as to what it is. I=
 am willing to share any information that may help in identifying and fixin=
g this issue.



Thanking you in advance for your help,

Subhrajit Sain,

Did you set up a connection for device wlan0: what is the output of "nmcli =
connection"?
