Generate ath10k firmware files

# vim:set ft=sh
# MODULES
# The following modules are loaded before any boot hooks are
# run. Advanced users may wish to specify all system modules
# in this array. For instance:
# MODULES="piix ide_disk reiserfs"
MODULES="radeon backlight samsung_laptop"
# BINARIES
# This setting includes any additional binaries a given user may
# wish into the CPIO image. This is run last, so it may be used to
# override the actual binaries included by a given hook
# BINARIES are dependency parsed, so you may safely ignore libraries
BINARIES=""
# FILES
# This setting is similar to BINARIES above, however, files are added
# as-is and are not parsed in any way. This is useful for config files.
FILES="/etc/modprobe.d/wifi.conf /etc/modprobe.d/ath10k.conf"
# HOOKS
HOOKS="base udev plymouth resume autodetect modconf block filesystems keyboard fsck"
# COMPRESSION
# Use this to compress the initramfs image. By default, gzip compression
# is used. Use 'cat' to create an uncompressed image.
#COMPRESSION="gzip"
#COMPRESSION="bzip2"
#COMPRESSION="lzma"
#COMPRESSION="xz"
#COMPRESSION="lzop"
#COMPRESSION="lz4"
# COMPRESSION_OPTIONS
# Additional options for the compressor
#COMPRESSION_OPTIONS=""Network services
Ditch the Network Manager
sudo systemctl stop NetworkManager
sudo systemctl disable NetworkManagerWe will use a simple conjunction of DHCP client and wpa_supplicant
So let's make it manually first, then we will automate (and we will need internet to download and install some packages sudo pacman -S dhcpcd)
wpa_passphrase Insomnia pass | sudo tee /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant-wlan0.conf
sudo wpa_supplicant -B -i wlan0 -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant-wlan0.conf
sudo ip addr add 192.168.0.74/24 dev wlan0
sudo ip route add default via 192.168.0.1 dev wlan0
sudo nano /etc/resolv.conf # nameserver 8.8.8.8sudo systemctl enable wpa_supplicant@wlan0.service
sudo pacman -S dhcpcd
sudo systemctl start dhcpcd@wlan0.service
sudo systemctl enable dhcpcd@wlan0.service
sudo ln -s /usr/share/dhcpcd/hooks/10-wpa_supplicant /usr/lib/dhcpcd/dhcpcd-hooks/Reference
