Orange Pi Zero LTS wont start Ethernet with linux-image-6.1.0-12-rt-armmp

[AZ8]

First, I have installed latest Armbian 23.8 Bookworm CLI, boot works fine, I can login

Then, I have installed wireguard. As a dependency, wireguard install linux-image-6.1.0-12-rt-armmp

After reboot device is unavailable in network (orange LAN LED blinking while green does not, I assume ethternet broken with this kernel)

Looks like Debian stock kernel which obviously won't work with this board. Try installing wireguard with "--no-install-recommends" switch

Looks more like manually installed kernel, given that kernel is a realtime kernel. Ofcourse that does mean its not our issue as its not our kernel

No, I did not manually installed this kernel, apt installed it as a dependency for wireguard

Then you need to tell them to fix this.

You only needed to install wireguard-tools package, and I believe that should be already installed in armbian image. Wireguard on the other hand is a metapackage that also tries to install the kernel modules which are already available in armbian.

 

To revert back to armbian kernel, run "apt-get install --reinstall linux-image-current-sunxi linux-dtb-current-sunxi"
