The OS works flawlessly in general, but there is no network interface besides lo. I did apply the dbus fix.<br /><br />Checked dmesg, but didn't see anything with regards to wifi. I'm a noob, so I'm a bit lost on options now. I installed lshw, but it crashes saying "Bus error (core dumped)" when I run it as root. lsmod is empty, and modprobe runs into an error saying it can't open the directory /lib/modules/3.0.35-02708-g899792c-dirty - maybe that's the root of the problem or all that is expected, I have no idea and need some help.<br /><br />My workaround is to connect my phone and activate USB tethering, that works.andhihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05314652694470405236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2207190930236349395.post-64467920827299191782013-12-05T09:07:53.157-08:002013-12-05T09:07:53.157-08:00Just did a dd from SATA SSD back to SSD:

On the external SD card, the kernel image (uImage) should be copied to the /boot directory after extracting the rootfs, if it is not already there. The boot.scr should be copied to /. There is NO fixed position for the kernel with is uboot.<br /><br />For the internal SD card, when formatting ensure you leave some free space before the partition (eg 15MB) for uboot.
