Please try core-image-base instead of core-image-minimal. That should provide you with the necessary network support.

Dear all,

I am setting up my Odroid XU with yocto using the core-image-minimal receipe. Almost done and I am able to boot the system and log in via screen (UART), but..

The network is not present at start-up. When I do lsmod I just see "Not tainted" and no modules are loaded.

The module I need to load is the smsc95xx module. When I tried to load the driver with "modpobe" it could not find the driver (although it is in /lib/modules/3.4.98-custom/kernel/drivers/net/usb)
I had to manually add it to /lib/modules/3.4.98-custom/modules.dep (which was empty after the bitbake process in rootfs)

So I added
"kernel/drivers/net/usb/smsc95xx.ko: " to modules.dep.

Then I could load it with modprobe. In order to load it at startup

I created a /etc/modules with the content "smsc95xx". Now my question:

Is there an easier (bitbake) way to make the modules load at startup without editing configs on the target device? Am I missing something? Does core-image-minimal not include network?

Cheers,

Markus
