That thought crossed my mind, but I was hoping it would fix it. After I set the locale/timezone and my date and time were correct, I could correctly curl kernel.org, it just failed before it even got to the linux-firmware package. I’m not sure why. Maybe I can figure out how to modify the timeout, since I was able to manually initialize the keyring and update/upgrade packages without an error. Or, I should just figure out what exactly I need to do, to mimic the gui setup itself and run everything from a terminal.
