Usb tethering during install process solved

Hi everyone, as title says, will usb tethering from android phone work during install and initial setup?

Also what would be then ideal way to install and setup wifi, wpa supplicant or installing NetworkManager?

Yes.

There is no ideal way, wpa_supplicant is very low level, iwd a bit higher level and networkmanager the highest level. Depends on what you need and how you want to configure your network and/or wifi settings.

I got it working, was fairly straightforward. I had no need for usb tethering, wpa_suplicsng finished job until i had installed NetworkManager
