I created a Jessie image for BananaPi with the latest / next kernel, and when booting the image, it get's stuck on "A start job is running for LSB: Raise network interfaces". It never seems to complete raising the interface, and since there is no time limit, this goes on forever.

 

Creating a Wheezy image seems to work fine (also using latest / next kernel).

 

Any suggestions on how I can get the Jessie image up and running?

 

Thanks.

This is the same problem as described here. Apparently the workaround is not working @Jessie. Sometimes the power cycle helps.

Thanks Igor,

 

I did try power cycling multiple times, with no luck.

 

I'll stick with Wheezy until this is resolved.

Yes, better. I'll try to work this out until next build.

Use this DTB but remove codec. This patch is not in mainline

This dts enable eth0 wifi and edt display from lemaker

I made my own kernel with the configuration of Kernel-4.1.2, this works also. I found out that the dvbsky-driver should be compiled as module, not like in Igor's configuration für Kernel-4.2.2. When I boot up with a connected dvbsky the kernel crashes totally.
But with the older configuration I still have the problem with the clocksource (" clocksource: hstimer: mask: 0xffffffff max_cycles: 0xffffffff, max_idle_ns: 21718868714 ns" for example)
My bananapi works now with self-compiled kernel-4.2.3

this is my way to get working stretch or jessie with 4.* kernel

Many thanks to you Igor. I had the same problem, but now with version 4.5 with kernel 4.2.3 the problem is gone.

Nice work!
