Sure. Follow the instructions in the dhcpcd page. Specifically: To configure dhcpcd, you need to first install the network service script, /lib/services/dhcpcd included in the blfs-bootscripts-20120702 package (as user root): make install-service-dhcpcd That symlink you made is wrong. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
