installing netctl - getting errors
by permitivity » Mon Jul 01, 2013 5:40 am
And I get the following errors. It's true that those files like "/usr/bin/wifi-menu" exists already. I think they existed before I ran the command? But, I'm just not sure what to do about it. Thanks for any insights.
Edit: It occured to me that I might just try "pacman -S netctl". I tried it, still getting those "file already exists" errors.

OoOoo, that worked. Thanks.
I installed arch fresh just this weekend. I'm sure I didn't explicitly install netcfg, so I guess somehow it was installed. Maybe it comes with the Arch install by default.

I got a kinda formula for converting to netctl, but certain devices are a problem, eg cubox prefers netctl-ifplugd, raspberrypi prefers dhcpc@, but if possible netctl enable profilename is best as it gives instant ssh disconnect
