Networking Not Working in LFS


My networking is not be able to connect in LFS. It does work in all of the other distros and Windows. I have tried numerous kernel reconfigurations and networking utilities reinstallations. The system has a Wi-Fi and Ethernet apadters, niether work in the LFS system properly.

ifconfig:
Code:

That is done in the running kernel. I remembered that I give the computer sort-of Internet by connecting the LFS computer to my laptop through Windows Internet Connection Sharing, yet the computers can only ping each other. My goal is to get Wi-Fi on the LFS computer working. The graphics card radeon drivers would also be good.

Edit: LFS version is 20140908, with xfce4 and some of BLFS installed

Are you using dhcpcd or dhclient?

Make sure you only have one enabled in the init system.

I only found the dhcpcd in the init system, as far as I know.

Do you have anything in /lib/lsb that is dhclient or dhcp related?
