Hi Chris,
Great, this works.
Naturally, since we built without loadable modules, this failed:
FAILED Failed to start Load Kernel Modules.
See 'systemctl status systemd-modules-load.service' for details.
Though eth0 did not come up. However
sudo dhclient eth0
brought it up OK.
I now added in /etc/init.d/networking to automatically fix it
start)
...
for n in `seq 5 -1 1` ; do
ifconfig eth0 2>&1 | grep -q 'not found' || break
echo "waiting for eth0... $n"
sleep 1s
done
if ifup -a $exclusions $verbose && ifup_hotplug $exclusions $verbose
then
log_action_end_msg $?
else
log_action_end_msg $?
fi
;;
Later I found that replacing the loop with a simple
ifconfig eth0 &>/dev/null
also wakes up eth0 and all is properly set up. Go figure.
BTW in the original initramfs/ I added the eth0 loop to etc/init.d/S40network
and set it up static in etc/network/interfaces and etc/resolv.conf
I will wait to see if kernel 4.9 will handle the raspi3 in 64bit/SMP mode.
Thanks again,
Eyal
