firmware-iwl9000.tcz

[Rabie]

Hi,

i have an device called "ZBOX CI329 nano"  https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B07H569HM2/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&creativeASIN=B07H569HM2&linkCode=as2&tag=elefacts-21

it has the device Intel® Wireless-AC 9462 and the driver there for is "firmware-iwl9000.tcz"

On TinyCore version 10. x86 and 10. 10. x86_64 everything works fine

The driver does not work on both version 11x and 12x , x86 and x86_64

when starting with the driver i get this while booting: https://www.dropbox.com/s/s0e6yn93btg1o4a/Unbenannt3.PNG?dl=0
and the Ethernet adapters doesn't get up

Kernel bug, but we don't know where since that's posted earlier (instead of taking a picture, please copypaste text from dmesg). In any case, your easiest options are using 10.x or waiting for 13.x.

or waiting for 13.x.

is there already a release date ?

your easiest options are using 10.x or waiting

What would be my hardest options to get the driver to work?

[Juanito]

is there already a release date ?

In a day or two

[curaga]

What would be my hardest options to get the driver to work?

Build a debug kernel to see which module and line caused the bug, then see if there exists a patch. If one exists, apply it to the version you want to use.

Hi Curaga,
ok i am not that pro yet, i would prefer to wait for the new Kernel 13x 

[Rabie]

how to get notified once TC13 is released for users ?

Hi Rabie
The  Tiny Core 13.0 Alpha 1  version is available if you want to test it out:

Hi Rich,
is there an instruction how to install it ?

[Rich]

Hi Rabie
I think the simplest way for testing would be to:
1. Get a blank USB thumb drive.
2. Do an install use a TC12 ISO.
3. Replace the vmlinuz64 with the one found here:
http://repo.tinycorelinux.net/13.x/x86_64/release_candidates/distribution_files/
4. Using files from above link, replace corepure64.gz with a replacement made like this:

Code: [Select]

cat rootfs64.gz modules64.gz > corepure64.gz5. Boot the thumb drive.
6. Update the extensions:

Code: [Select]

tce-audit builddb
tce-audit updatedeps
tce-audit fetchmissing
tce-update7. Reboot.

[Rabie]

thank you

[Rich]

Hi Rabie
You are welcome.
