Void Linux thread
Hasturtium:
In this case there isn't one - I switched to using a crossover connection between the BMC ethernet port on the Blackbird and the ethernet port on the Ryzen computer sitting next to it, running Ubuntu 22.04 from a thumb drive.
MPC7500:
And the IP address of your Ryzen or any other device which is connected with the internet?
Hasturtium:
Update: the early batch of Blackbird motherboards apparently had a glitch in their BMC firmware that was supposed to be ironed out prior to manufacture. Support was patient and helpful, and sent me a flashing tool and ROM, and things are now working. I'm glad I wasn't *that* bad at following directions, and thank you so much for trying to help.
ClassicHasClass:
Very interesting.

I’ve been trying, but whether I use date within the skiroot shell to set the date or within Void itself, it doesn’t seem to stick. Forgive me, I’m new to this - can you show me how?
edit: to clarify, date appears to update correctly, but hwclock remains firmly convinced that it is June 8th, and nothing I’ve been able to do disabuses it of the notion. I’ve tried syncing the system time to the hardware clock so they’re at least both wrong to the same extent, but networking still doesn’t work
edit the second: I skipped connecting to the BMC initially, which is where I’m supposed to initially set the date. D’oh. I’ll take care of that this week and pray until then.

The options through BMC can be either NTP or manually set. I'm interested to see what works for you, since I've found both to be a bit fussy.
