I use a graphical tool (I assume it' s virt-manager) to get started. I follow the GuixSD installation with the graphical installer. When it comes to network connectivity I get some problems. I' m able to establish internet connectivity when I open the console via STRG-ALT-F3 and enter (real values are hidden) ifconfig eth0 xxx.yyy.zzz.aaa netmask 255.255.255.255 route add aaa.bbb.ccc.254 dev eth0 route add default gw aaa.bbb.ccc.254 # use OVH nameserver which is close to me: echo 'nameserver 213.186.33.99' >> /etc/resolv.conf After those commands now I' m able to successfully run ping -c 3 gnu.org I feel that the graphical installation would be able to complete if it could manage to get connected to the network. I don't want to run the complete manual shell-based installation because only the step with establishing network connectivity fails. I' m wondering if it' s possible for me to "manipulate" the graphical installer and add the commands outlined above? Is the graphical installer based on some shell scripts which I can modify? Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Salutations distinguées, A scheener Grüeß, Bescht Gréiss, Kind regards, Meikel
