Before anything else, I should mention that my Linux knowledge is rather small and I'm not a native English speaker, so please have patience with me.
When I try to install Manjaro 18 (Gnome), it always gets stuck at 92% (misc postinstall). From what I've been able to find, it probably hangs at pacman -Sy
, but I don't know how to check if that's true.
Either way, by the time the installer gets to this stage, internet stops working... mostly. When I try to open a new tab in Firefox and open let's say Google, it doesn't load, BUT when I tried to determine at which exact point the internet connection stops working by using http://startrinity.com/InternetQuality/InternetConnectionMonitor.aspx , the site never showed any down time. This leads me to believe that there's a problem with DNS connection or something like that.
I tried cancelling the installation and then booting up the partially installed Manjaro anyway. What I got, was what seemed like a fully working install of Manjaro, except that I was experiencing the same connection problem as described above.
What should I do to get Manjaro Gnome properly installed?
ip
,ping
. Try to edit/etc/resolv.conf
. Check NetworkManager service etc. ArchWiki may help.ping 8.8.8.8
is useful for checking whether you have Internet connectivity, and it doesn’t require that you have working DNS.
