    @RatPoster Proprietary software and SaaSS and its consequences (although maybe the consequences in this case isn't so bad).

    Of course there is a real solution; https://www.gnu.org/software/mediagoblin/

    @waff https://wiki.parabola.nu/Mkinitcpio#HOOKS

    Seems that older versions of mkinitcpio at least required manually adding PATA support if required; HOOKS="... pata ... filesystems ..."

    @waff >block Adds all block device modules, formerly separately provided by the fw, mmc, pata, sata, scsi, usb, and virtio hooks.
    Huh.

    Probably not that then...

    I suggest downgrading if possible to see what happens.

    @waff In a file called .config, although that might be generated by a script, which will be hard to work out.

    @waff It seems the IDE driver could be part of the SATA driver.

    Generally configuration changes are made each update, so a previously good configuration can be changed into a broken one so it seems that it's an unrelated configuration change that has caused something to break.

    The easiest way to determine if that's it is to downgrade Linux and see if it works.

    @waff It turns out it is possible to disable PATA (IDE) support if CONFIG_ATA_SFF=n and CONFIG_PATA_ATIIXP=n and CONFIG_PATA_ACPI=n

    Too bad the only way to check the initramfs configuration is to download the source scripts.

    @waff The IDE driver really should be included in the initramfs, but it could be that the initramfs doesn't contain a IDE driver as "nobody uses IDE anymore", which would explain why it's not working.

    @waff It appears to be related to the initramfs failing to detect the partitions full of GNU.

    You want to see what partitions are are detected in the emergency shell and the UUID's if possible and see if the boot config is correct or incorrect.

    If you can confirm a SATA drive is plugged in and is accessible from a live image, then the initramfs is completely broken as it can't find /dev/sda.

    What you would generally do is boot up from a live image, chroot into the artix root;
    mkdir /mnt/artix
    mount -t proc /proc /mnt/artix/proc
    mount --rbind /sys /mnt/artix/sys
    mount --rbind /dev /mnt/artix/dev
    mount --rbind /run /mnt/artix/run
    chroot /mnt/artix /bin/bash

    and then downgrade or upgrade the initramfs until you find one that works (or install another one - I found dracut to be the least sucky initramfs, although it takes several edits before it starts working).

    If you don't use LVM or encrypted partitions, you don't need an initramfs - all you need is GRUB, although for some reason that's deemed non-standard on many distros.

    @waff I haven't used Parabola, but I can probably work out issues not related to the package manager.

    @nyanide Valve doesn't treat its customers like humans - it spies on them and it shackles them with digital handcuffs.

    Valve is just slightly less abusive than most proprietary software vendors.

    @PurpCat @Ronnie21093 >who is used to wifi just working on windows
    Yet another thing that doesn't happen.

    Wi-Fi is always shitty and unreliable on windows.

    I find ath9k cards on GNU/Linux very reliable (they always automatically reconnect after resume from suspend immediately too).


    If you plug a ath9k_htc USB card into an offline WC, you do not get Wi-Fi, as the piece of crap doesn't come with the driver and needs to download it over the internet.

    You plug the same card into Trisquel and it just works.


    My car is GNU/Car and it's better than yours, as it at least respects my freedom (it happens to been much faster than your proprietary prison too).

    @Ronnie21093 @PurpCat Wi-Fi encapsulates Ethernet.

    I do use 1000BASE-T for desktops.

    @Ronnie21093 @PurpCat >For me, Wi-Fi is connecting a device to the modem/gateway/ect wirelessly
    Computing is all abstraction.

    802.11n Wi-Fi for example is a specification that defines a wireless medium that encapsulates Ethernet packets that have the destination address in the header in another kind of packet that is similar to Ethernet for over-the-air transmission.

    When the Access Point receives the 802.11n packets, it throws away the wrappers and puts the packets together and then proceeds to route the Ethernet packet.


    1000BASE-T is a specification that defines a physical media that usually is 4 twisted pairs and 8P8C connectors and also the electrical signalling for transmitting Ethernet packets over the wire, which then gets routed.

    As a result, both protocols use the exact same Ethernet - the difference is the encoding mechanism and transmission medium.

    I personally differentiate between 802.11n and 1000BASE-T, as that gives the reader enough information to determine exactly what I mean.
