Hi.
On my laptop running KDE Manjaro, I cannot boot into the DE, and I get the following
Failed to start Samba NMB Daemon
I get stuck on the boot window, and nothing happens
There are a bunch of Hardware errors, but I think those are normal and showed up when samba was working too
I’m certain that there hasn’t been any altering to the config files previously on my part
Since I can boot into the terminal view, I was able to run systemctl status nmb.service
It shows up as failed with the error mentioning interfaces:
Status: "nmbd: No local IPv4 non-loopback interfaces available, waiting for interface...
I have no idea what this means really, but from googling around, I saw that you can change the config file and add interface = 127.0.0.0/8 eno0 or lo0 eth0
This didn’t work and the service still won’t start
Is there an easy way to fix it?
If not, can I possibly reinstall the OS without destroying all my data? I have a USB with Manjaro KDE on it, is there a way to fix the broken Samba with like chroot or something?
Maybe important info about hardware condition
The laptop is old, it’s network card has had it’s connections welded (I don’t think that’s the problem cause the card works when booting from a USB), it has no battery so it stays plugged in all the time, it’s motherboard battery is kinda ■■■■■■ so after removing the plug sometimes the bios resets, it’s running an NVMe SSD via AHCI (Raid won’t recognize UUID or smth)
