I'venoticed networkmanger and systemd-networkd seem not be best friends on Arch,

Network goes down (SSH too) but the OPI does not crash.

Are you using wifi and wired at the same time?

if yes, how do you raise the eth and wlan?

BTW: ingeneral a rolling (bleeding edge) release as Arch is not the best choice for stability,

I would choose a more conservative distribution as Debian

Hi,
Just using wired, no wifi
Arch was the dog balls before systemd came along
I still love yaourt but yes, a distro like dietpi (raspbian based) is ideal for a stable server

Newer versions of udev does not support user-space firmware loading and OPI kernel does not support kernel-space firmware loading.

loboris,

first off all, thanks for sharing this arch image. it works so far, nice!!

one small remark: in order for the install_to_emmc script to work out of the box on this image, you first need to install two more packages: 1/ parted (to create the filesystem)
and 2/ dosfstools (for the mkfs.vfat command to work)

regards,
drizzle
