Is there an appropriate similar procedure for such an environment, or would I have to experiment and play around trying to get things to work? I also have quite a few network definitions in wpa_supplicant.conf, and I wouldn't want to have to re-enter them manually into a new system if I could avoid it. Is there a migration procedure, other convenient way to bring those settings across into iwd?
