Improved NetworkManager instructions to fix issues raised in #857 , namely:

  • Adding to the network group is not enough, polkitd needs to be installed and running.
  • DNS configuration is not forwarded to resolv.conf by NetworkManager through resolvconf if a file or a symlink already exists (which is the case when installing from the base iso). A simple fix is to delete the file and let it be recreated on a first network connection using NetworkManager.

The failing link checks are from parts of the handbook that were untouched here, maybe they could be handled in another issue/PR?
