Installation

Since the Minimal Installation CD[1] does not come with the necessary firmware to use the wireless networking controller you will be forced to use another live system, if you are planning to establish a wireless lan connection during installation.

Kernel

Wireless

Since the Intel Corporation Wireless 7260 required additional firmware, it won't work with a kernel out of the box. The following steps will guide you how to built the necessary firmware into the kernel:

Note
It's also possible to load the firmware from the userspace.
Installing the firmware

When installing the firmware you can either choose the hardware specific package sys-firmware/iwl7260-ucode or the general package sys-kernel/linux-firmware.

root #emerge --ask sys-firmware/iwl7260-ucode
Configuring
KERNEL Adding wireless support
'"`UNIQ--pre-00000004-QINU`"'

TPM (and suspend/resume)

A common problem can be encountered if the TPM chip has been activated in UEFI/BIOS. If the kernel lacks the necessary drivers the system freezes when attempting to resume from a suspend.

KERNEL TPM
'"`UNIQ--pre-00000007-QINU`"'
