It has been puzzling me for some time that from v8 on wireless connection doesn't work.(I've noticed others have the same problem).
I have Intel Pro/Wireless (ipw2200)
I've tried lots of options: different versions of dhcpcd, wpa_supplicant, frisbee; manually connect, etc..
Also tried some tips from this forum.
Nothing worked...
But eventually I found this simple workaround:
Code: Select all
# Copy kmod and modprobe (symlink to kmod) from /bin to /usr/bin
cp -a /bin/modprobe /usr/bin
cp -a /bin/kmod /usr/bin
# Create symlink sbin to usr/bin on the filesystem root.
cd /
ln -s usr/bin sbin
And try to connect through frisbee (maybe a reboot with savefile is required first)
I'm not sure why but it worked for me.
Hope this works for others too.
Thanks for alphaOS, now it's perfect for me with working wireless.
EDIT: Even more simple (as Marv suggested):
Create symlink /sbin to /bin does the trick:
Code: Select all
# Create symlink sbin to /bin on the filesystem root.
cd /
ln -s bin sbin
