+<div style="padding: 5px; margin: 0.50em 0; background-color: #FFDDDD; border: thin solid #DDBBBB; overflow: hidden;"><strong> Warning: </strong>udev no longer assigns network interface names according to the wlanX and ethX naming scheme. If you're coming from a different distribution or are reinstalling Parabola and not aware of the new interface naming style, please do not assume that your wireless interface is named wlan0, or that your wired interface is named eth0. You can use the "ip" utility to discover the names of your interfaces.</div>
+<p>From systemd-197's release and onward, udev now assigns predictable, stable network interface names that deviate from the legacy incremental naming scheme (wlan0, wlan1, etc.). These interface names are guaranteed to be persistent across reboots, which solves the problem of the lack of predictability of network interface name assignment. For more information about why this was necessary, read <a rel="nofollow" class="external free" href="http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/PredictableNetworkInterfaceNames">http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/PredictableNetworkInterfaceNames</a> .

+<p>The <code style="display:inline-block; padding: 0.1em 0.3em;">dhcpcd</code> network daemon is started automatically at boot and it will attempt to start a wired connection, if available. Try pinging a website to see if it was successful. And since Google is always on...
+</p>
+<pre style="margin-bottom: 0; border-bottom:none; padding-bottom:0.8em;"># ping -c 3 www.google.com</pre>

+<p>If you get a <code style="display:inline-block; padding: 0.1em 0.3em;">ping: unknown host</code> error, first check if there is any problem with your cable (or if you have enough wireless signal), otherwise you will need to set up the network manually, as explained below.
+</p>
+<p>Otherwise, move on to <a href="#Prepare_the_storage_drive">Prepare the storage drive</a>.
+</p>
+<h4 id="g0.1.2.1">Wired </h4>
+<p>Follow this procedure if you need to set up a wired connection via a static IP address.
+</p>
+<p>First, identify the name of your ethernet interface.
+</p>
+<pre style="margin-bottom: 0; border-bottom:none; padding-bottom:0.8em;"># ip link</pre>
+<pre style="margin-top: 0; border-top-style:dashed; padding-top: 0.8em;">1: lo: &lt;LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP&gt; mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN mode DEFAULT
+ link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
+2: enp2s0f0: &lt;BROADCAST,MULTICAST&gt; mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT qlen 1000
+ link/ether 00:11:25:31:69:20 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
+3: wlp3s0: &lt;BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP&gt; mtu 1500 qdisc mq state UP mode DORMANT qlen 1000
+ link/ether 01:02:03:04:05:06 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff</pre>
+<p>In this case, the ethernet interface is enp2s0f0. If you're unsure, your ethernet interface is likely to start with the letter "e", and unlikely to be "lo" or start with the letter "w". You can also use iwconfig and see which interfaces are not wireless:
+</p>
+<pre style="margin-bottom: 0; border-bottom:none; padding-bottom:0.8em;"># iwconfig</pre>
+<pre style="margin-top: 0; border-top-style:dashed; padding-top: 0.8em;">enp2s0f0 no wireless extensions.

+ Link Quality=61/70 Signal level=-49 dBm
+ Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0
+ Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:430 Missed beacon:0
+lo no wireless extensions.</pre>
+<p>In this example, neither enp2s0f0 nor the loopback device have wireless extensions, meaning enp2s0f0 is our ethernet interface.
+</p>
+<p>You also need to know these settings:
+</p>
+<ul>
+<li> Static IP address.
+</li>
+<li> Subnet mask.
+</li>
+<li> Gateway's IP address.
+</li>
+<li> Name servers' (DNS) IP addresses.
+</li>
+<li> Domain name (unless you're on a local LAN, in which case you can make it up).
+</li>
+</ul>
+<p>Activate the connected Ethernet interface (e.g. <code style="display:inline-block; padding: 0.1em 0.3em;">enp2s0f0</code>):
+</p>
+<pre># ip link set enp2s0f0 up
+</pre>
+<p>Add the address:
+</p>
+<pre># ip addr add &lt;ip address&gt;/&lt;subnetmask&gt; dev &lt;interface&gt;
+</pre>
+<p>For example:
+</p>
+<pre># ip addr add 192.168.1.2/24 dev enp2s0f0
+</pre>
+<p>For more options, run <code style="display:inline-block; padding: 0.1em 0.3em;">man ip</code>.
+</p>
+<p>Add your gateway like this, substituting your own gateway's IP address:
+</p>
+<pre># ip route add default via &lt;ip address&gt;
+</pre>
+<p>For example:
+</p>
+<pre># ip route add default via 192.168.1.1
+</pre>
+<p>Edit <code style="display:inline-block; padding: 0.1em 0.3em;">resolv.conf</code>, substituting your name servers' IP addresses and your local domain name:
+</p>
+<pre style="margin-bottom: 0; border-bottom:none; padding-bottom:0.8em;"># nano /etc/resolv.conf</pre>
+<pre style="margin-top: 0; border-top-style:dashed; padding-top: 0.8em;">nameserver 61.23.173.5

+<div style="padding: 5px; margin: 0.50em 0; background-color: #DDDDFF; border: thin solid #BBBBDD; overflow: hidden;"><strong> Note: </strong>Currently, you may include a maximum of 3 <code style="display:inline-block; padding: 0.1em 0.3em;">nameserver</code> lines.</div>
+<p>You should now have a working network connection. If you do not, check the detailed <a href="https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Network_Configuration" title="Network Configuration">Network Configuration</a> page.
+</p>
+<h4 id="g0.1.2.2">Wireless </h4>
+<p>Follow this procedure if you need wireless connectivity (Wi-Fi) during the installation process.
+</p>
+<p>If you're coming from another distribution, or if this is your first time installing Parabola since the deprecation of the old interface naming scheme, you might be surprised to learn that the first wireless interface is not named "wlan0". In fact, none of the interfaces are automatically prefixed with "wlan" any longer. Don't panic; simply execute <code style="display:inline-block; padding: 0.1em 0.3em;">iwconfig</code> to discover the name of your wireless interface.
+</p>
+<p>The wireless drivers and utilities are now available to you in the live environment of the installation media. A good knowledge of your wireless hardware will be of key importance to successful configuration. Note that the following quick-start procedure <i>executed at this point in the installation</i> will initialize your wireless hardware for use <i>in the live environment of the installation media</i>. These steps (or some other form of wireless management) <b>must be repeated from the actual installed system after booting into it</b>.
+</p>
+<p>Also note that these steps are optional if wireless connectivity is unnecessary at this point in the installation; wireless functionality may always be established later.
+</p>
+<div style="padding: 5px; margin: 0.50em 0; background-color: #DDDDFF; border: thin solid #BBBBDD; overflow: hidden;"><strong> Note: </strong>The following examples use <code style="display:inline-block; padding: 0.1em 0.3em;">wlp3s0</code> for the interface and <code style="display:inline-block; padding: 0.1em 0.3em;">linksys</code> for the ESSID. Remember to change these values according to your setup.</div>
+<p>The basic procedure will be:
+</p>
+<ul>
+<li> Identify the wireless interface:
+</li>
+</ul>
+<pre># lspci | grep -i net
+</pre>
+<p>Or, if using a USB adapter:
+</p>
+<pre># lsusb
+</pre>
+<ul>
+<li> Ensure udev has loaded the driver, and that the driver has created a usable wireless kernel interface with <code style="display:inline-block; padding: 0.1em 0.3em;">iwconfig</code>:
+</li>
+</ul>
+<div style="padding: 5px; margin: 0.50em 0; background-color: #DDDDFF; border: thin solid #BBBBDD; overflow: hidden;"><strong> Note: </strong>If you do not see output similar to this, then your wireless driver has not been loaded. If this is the case, you must load the driver yourself. Please see <a href="https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Wireless_Setup" title="Wireless Setup">Wireless Setup</a> for more detailed information.</div>
+<pre style="margin-bottom: 0; border-bottom:none; padding-bottom:0.8em;"># iwconfig</pre>
+<pre style="margin-top: 0; border-top-style:dashed; padding-top: 0.8em;">enp2s0f0 no wireless extensions.

+lo no wireless extensions.</pre>
+<p>In this example, <code style="display:inline-block; padding: 0.1em 0.3em;">wlp3s0</code> is the available wireless interface.
+</p>
+<ul>
+<li> Bring the interface up with:
+</li>
+</ul>
+<pre># ip link set wlp3s0 up
+</pre>
+<p>A small percentage of wireless chipsets also require firmware, in addition to a corresponding driver. If the wireless chipset requires firmware, you are likely to receive this error when bringing the interface up:
+</p>
+<pre style="margin-bottom: 0; border-bottom:none; padding-bottom:0.8em;"># ip link set wlp3s0 up</pre>
+<pre style="margin-top: 0; border-top-style:dashed; padding-top: 0.8em;">SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such file or directory</pre>
+<p>If unsure, invoke <code style="display:inline-block; padding: 0.1em 0.3em;">dmesg</code> to query the kernel log for a firmware request from the wireless chipset.
+</p>
+<p>Example output from an Intel chipset which requires and has requested firmware from the kernel at boot:
+</p>
+<pre style="margin-bottom: 0; border-bottom:none; padding-bottom:0.8em;"># dmesg | grep firmware</pre>
+<pre style="margin-top: 0; border-top-style:dashed; padding-top: 0.8em;">firmware: requesting iwlwifi-5000-1.ucode</pre>
+<p>If there is no output, it may be concluded that the system's wireless chipset does not require firmware.
+</p>
+<div style="padding: 5px; margin: 0.50em 0; background-color: #FFDDDD; border: thin solid #DDBBBB; overflow: hidden;"><strong> Warning: </strong>Wireless chipset firmware packages (for cards which require them) are pre-installed under <code style="display:inline-block; padding: 0.1em 0.3em;">/usr/lib/firmware</code> in the live environment (on CD/USB stick) <b>but must be explicitly installed to your actual system to provide wireless functionality after you reboot into it!</b> Package installation is covered later in this guide. Ensure installation of both your wireless module and firmware before rebooting! See <a href="https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Wireless_Setup" title="Wireless Setup">Wireless Setup</a> if you are unsure about the requirement of corresponding firmware installation for your particular chipset.</div>

+<pre># wifi-menu wlp3s0
+</pre>
+<div style="padding: 5px; margin: 0.50em 0; background-color: #FFDDDD; border: thin solid #DDBBBB; overflow: hidden;"><strong> Warning: </strong>At the moment, netcfg's wifi-menu, when executed without arguments, will look for "wlan0".
