</I>&gt;<i> Let me get this straight.  You ran XFdrake for VESA chrooted to

</I>&gt;<i> screws up ?  Weird.
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>Yes, exactly that.

&gt;<i> If you follow the process I gave, you should be able to start the 
</I>&gt;<i> network from within the chroot (provided you were able to start it
</I>&gt;<i> from the rescue boot), or else it should already be up.  You should
</I>&gt;<i> then be able to run urpmi from within the chroot to install the
</I>&gt;<i> firmware packages from nonfree.
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> You'll need at least kernel-firmware-nonfree.  Here's what else is
</I>&gt;<i> there:
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> [<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">root at ftgme2</A> ftg]# cd /mnt/cauldron/x86_64/media/nonfree/release 
</I>&gt;<i> [<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">root at ftgme2</A> release]# ls *firm* 
</I>&gt;<i> atmel-firmware-1.3-5.mga3.nonfree.noarch.rpm 
</I>&gt;<i> bluez-firmware-1.2-9.mga3.nonfree.noarch.rpm 
</I>&gt;<i> ipw2100-firmware-1.3-5.mga3.nonfree.noarch.rpm 
</I>&gt;<i> ipw2200-firmware-3.1-3.mga3.nonfree.noarch.rpm 
</I>&gt;<i> ivtv-firmware-20080701-1.mga3.nonfree.noarch.rpm 
</I>&gt;<i> kernel-firmware-nonfree-20130307-1.mga3.nonfree.noarch.rpm 
</I>&gt;<i> radeon-firmware-20120322-5.mga3.nonfree.noarch.rpm 
</I>&gt;<i> ralink-firmware-20130307-1.mga3.nonfree.noarch.rpm 
</I>&gt;<i> rtlwifi-firmware-20130307-1.mga3.nonfree.noarch.rpm 
</I>&gt;<i> speedtouch-firmware-0.1-10.mga3.nonfree.noarch.rpm
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> If that doesn't work, then it sounds like your TTY configuration
</I>&gt;<i> is screwed, and if that's the case, I'm tapped out.  Colin would
</I>&gt;<i> probably be the best one to ask what controls getty under systemd
</I>&gt;<i> and how it's configured.
</I>
I'll try to get these, though in the light of what I saw a few minutes
ago (see reply to David) I'm not sure that this is going to work.
