Cool! I did not think about it.. now my hostapd works, thank you!

Hello, I try to use the Armbian build framework to generate a debian package with modified kernel, generated packages.deb works fine, but the compiled kernel is everytime the default and not mine. I use: ./compile.sh KERNEL_CONFIGURE=yes KERNEL_KEEP_CONFIG=no and then load my kernel_config but the result is everytime the default kernel, the .config become change then my .config I also try to bypass the problem by adding immutable attribute to my personalized .config (chattr +i ./.config) but the script crash: │ /home/maxi/sources/linux-sun8i/sun8i/scripts/kconfig/Makefile:33: recipe for target 'silentoldconfig' failed │ │ make[2]: *** [silentoldconfig] Error 1 │ │ /home/maxi/sources/linux-sun8i/sun8i/Makefile:493: recipe for target 'silentoldconfig' failed │ │ make[1]: *** [silentoldconfig] Error 2 │ │ make: *** No rule to make target 'include/config/auto.conf', needed by 'include/config/kernel.release'. Stop. Thankyou for your support (and sorry for my bad english)

With a distro downloaded from orangepi.org (originary for opiplus) hostapd work fine.. It use an older kernel version without "new" module mac80211 root@orangepiplus:~# uname -a Linux orangepiplus 3.4.39 #29 SMP PREEMPT Mon Nov 7 11:15:11 CST 2016 armv7l GNU/Linux root@orangepiplus:~# lsmod Module Size Used by xradio_wlan 230792 0 root@orangepiplus:~# modinfo /lib/modules/3.4.39/xradio_wlan.ko filename: /lib/modules/3.4.39/xradio_wlan.ko alias: xradio_core license: GPL description: XRadioTech WLAN driver core author: XRadioTech srcversion: EE504CDAD99C9B5CF34A68C depends: intree: Y vermagic: 3.4.39 SMP preempt mod_unload modversions ARMv7 p2v8 parm: macaddr:First MAC address (charp) root@orangepiplus:~# hostapd /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf Configuration file: /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf Using interface wlan1 with hwaddr 48:eb:26:65:8f:47 and ssid "test" wlan1: interface state UNINITIALIZED->ENABLED wlan1: AP-ENABLED ^Croot@orangepiplus:~# root@orangepiplus:~# hostapd /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf & [1] 2017 root@orangepiplus:~# Configuration file: /etc/hostapd/hostapd.conf Using interface wlan1 with hwaddr 48:eb:26:65:8f:47 and ssid "test" wlan1: interface state UNINITIALIZED->ENABLED wlan1: AP-ENABLED root@orangepiplus:~# iwconfig gre0 no wireless extensions. lo no wireless extensions. tunl0 no wireless extensions. wlan1 IEEE 802.11bgn Mode:Master Frequency:2.412 GHz Tx-Power=20 dBm Retry long limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off Power Management:on sit0 no wireless extensions. eth0 no wireless extensions. ip6tnl0 no wireless extensions. p2p0 IEEE 802.11bgn ESSID:off/any Mode:Managed Access Point: Not-Associated Tx-Power=20 dBm Retry long limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off Encryption key:off Power Management:on This orangepi.org distros are full of problems and board become very hot.. I want to try to use armbian, but I don't understand what is the problem with hostapd, any ideas?
