Module bonding not found

[Nicolas Bourasseau]

Hi everybody,

 

I work on my Orange Pi Plus 2 since a few days now. I've installed Armbian with linux Kernel 3.4 (Debian Jessie) on eMMC. One of my main objectives is to bond the WiFi and the Ethernet interfaces in one interface called bond0 (I've seen many examples on how to do this on the Internet). My configuration seems to be good (it's based on the default interfaces.bonding file, just changed it with my WiFi parameters).

 

When I restart networking service, none of my interfaces get up.

I've tried to update/upgrade my stystem, reinstall ifenslave. I've also checked module list with lsmod, it returns a lot of names, but not "bonding" module. When I type modprobe bonding, I've this error : 

"modprobe: FATAL: Module bonding not found."

 

Sorry for my bad English, and thanks for your help

Now you have two options - build a kernel on your own or wait for tomorrow auto build - around 20 hours from now. You need to switch into beta.armbian.com repository to get that update.

 

P.S.

Thanks a lot, I've switched to beta repo, and I've enabled bonding module !

 

Now, I'm just trying to set up my configuration for my bond interface.

 

Thanks for your help Igor

My bond configuration works for my Ethernet interface eth0, but since I changed my kernel for the dev one, I can't see my WiFi card (iwconfig or ifconfig outputs only lo, eth0 and bond0).

 

Maybe I need to reactivate WiFi drivers ?

 

Thanks

Well. You switched to DEV kernel, but you actually should switch to BETA repository, where you would get an update for the kernel that you are using and where I made a change. 

WiFi might not be enabled in DT while drivers should be present in the DEV kernel ... but you are on your own to fix this. Development kernel comes without support since it's rapidly changing. If you are not able to fix such troubles, go back to legacy and switch to beta/nightly repository.
