So this is once booted into your new system?

Did you add your root partition to /etc/fstab? If it's not there, it won't be
remounted rw during the bootup processes. So, you won't be able to enable any
services and dhcp won't be able to write to /etc/resolv.conf for your DNS settings.

Add a similar line to this to /etc/fstab:

/dev/<xxx>   /  auto  defaults,relatime 0 1
