Hello,

I'm using a Banana Pi P2-Zero based on H3 and I want to get Ethernet running. To no avail so far...

 

When building the image, I use this parameters:

BOARD=bananapim2zero BRANCH=current RELEASE=jammy BUILD_MINIMAL=no BUILD_DESKTOP=no

 

I use the customize-image.sh script, but I don't change anything related to the drivers (or so I think). There are no patches, overlays or anything like that.

 

I saw this topic but this solution doesn't help:

 

I also tried something like this but it didn't help either:

/dts-v1/;
/plugin/;

/ {
    compatible = "allwinner,sun8i-h3";
    fragment@0 {
        target = <&emac>;
        __overlay__ {
            status = "okay";
            pinctrl-names = "default";
            pinctrl-0 = <&emac_rgmii_pins &emac_clk_out_pins>;
            phy-mode = "rgmii";
        };
    };
};

 

Using ifconfig -a  I only see lo and wlan. The LEDs at the ethernet socket are on constantly.

I am sure that the hardware is working properly because ethernet works on the ready image from the Internet. Unfortunately, I can't use this image

 

Does anyone know how to enable this ethernet?

I found a solution. I used dts from here:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/73557042/how-to-enable-eth0-on-banana-pi-zero-m2/73557043

 

and I used the armbian-add-overlay command instead of using dtc
