[arch-general] Why there is no NetworkManager in ArchISO

[Jude DaShiell]

I can't use mouse-driven tools due to total blindness and a fine motor 
deficit.  However, that in no way stops me from using networkmanager.  I 
just use nmtui and if you want to set up most systems like debian or 
slint and slint has good accessibility nmtui brings up my wifi 
connection up nicely.
