wlan not recognized during installation
Re-open of #8403 (closed) since it was closed two years ago and I'm not sure if it's still being monitored.
My laptop is able to connect to the network using the iwlwifi
driver on another OS, but wlan0
does not show up during Alpine installation even after running modprobe iwlwifi
and rfkill unblock wlan
. I've tried and received the same result on standard-3.17.{0,1,2,3}-x86_64
and standard-3.18.0_rc4-x86_64
.
I've tried using a wifi usb and a ethernet to usb adaptor but they didn't work either because the installer did not have the driver for the adapters. I tried compiling the driver from a different machine and loading it during the installation but my other machine uses linux-headers-6.3
and the installer uses linux-headers-5.1.27
, which is not available on aports either.
