No network with pi3

[laibulle]

Hello,

I am trying to get network on my Raspberry Pi3.

ip link returns "lo" and "eth0" (where is wlan0 ?)

but ifup returns

ifup eth0 
ifup: can't open '/etc/network/interface': No such file or directory

Also, before the boot I get "No ethernet found" and the ethernet LED are off until the linux boot.

Did a miss something in the configuration ?

Best regards.

@laibulle What image do you install and can you pastebin dmesg?

[jerbob92]

Wifi isn't working here either. I added linux-firmware-bcm43430 to IMAGE_INSTALL_append.

[agherzan]

It does work with the right firmware added. This layer come with some images for testing. The key thing is https://github.com/agherzan/meta-raspberrypi/blob/master/recipes-core/packagegroups/packagegroup-rpi-test.bb#L31 .

[jerbob92]

@agherzan can you tell me which firmware I should add in my local.conf? Because I'm not getting it to work, whatever I try.

[agherzan]

linux-firmware-bcm43430 and probably kernel-module

[jerbob92]

Thanks, already found kernel-modules in rpi-hwup-image so building that now. linux-firmware-bcm43430 was already in there. Will let you know.

[agherzan]

But generally use the test image. And start from there when investigating support issues.
