    On the graphical installer, you can configure the network, wifi included,

     

       
68
       
+
       
    through NetworkManager. Using the <command>nmtui</command> program, you

     

       
69
       
+
       
    can do so even in a non-graphical session. If you prefer to configure the

     

       
70
       
+
       
    network manually, disable NetworkManager with

     

       
71

    <command>systemctl stop NetworkManager</command>.

    On the minimal installer, NetworkManager is not available, so configuration

    with <command>sudo systemctl start wpa_supplicant</command>, then run

     

       
78
