In reply to Leo M.

Try this

echo my-pc > /etc/hostname
systemctl enable dhcpcd

Then see if it works

In reply to Arindam Giri. I am having a similar problem. What do I need to change in /etc/host name? Thanks for the help

In reply to bruh. That is what I mentioned at the beginning. Obviously you can't download because you do not have wi-Fi. So, you have to manually download it from any other system and bring it via USB drive. Or, get a USB dongle from someone and download the lwd package. Because the USB dongle doesn't require any configuration. It automatically configured itself. Once you are done, follow the rest of the instructions.

In reply to sabino. Check your /etc/hostname file.
