MCP2515 CAN interface

[johand]

I can see that you added iproute2 to armv6 as well, but that extension have a broken dependency. It depends on the not existing extension netfilter-4.1.6-piCore+.

Seems to be working perfect now! Thanks for your support!

I it possible to add these extensions to armv6 as well? I have a plan using MCP2515 with the Raspberry Pi Compute Module in near future.

piCore 7.0alpha for 4.1.7 kernel is a work in progress. There are some issues but will be available soon. There are no intention to release new kernel modules for 7.0alpha with 4.1.6 or older kernel thought.

Can these modules be added to 8.x as well? I'm trying to use the same chip. Thanks.

Why not make your own extension with it...like this..
Just when the tce-load command remove the w if you get this error message.
tce-load -wil squashfs-tools.tcz
squashfs-tools is already downloaded.

Code: (bash) [Select]

cd
wget http://tinycorelinux.net/8.x/armv6/releases/RPi/src/kernel/4.4.39-piCore%2B_modules.tar.xz -O - | tar -xvJf -
mkdir /tmp/package/usr/local/lib/modules/4.4.39-piCore\+/kernel/drivers/net/can/
cp /home/tc/modules/4.4.39-piCore\+/kernel/drivers/net/can/can-dev.ko $_
mkdir /tmp/package/usr/local/lib/modules/4.4.39-piCore\+/kernel/drivers/net/can/spi/
cp /home/tc/modules/4.4.39-piCore\+/kernel/drivers/net/can/spi/mcp251x.ko $_
tce-load -wil squashfs-tools.tcz
mksquashfs package /etc/sysconfig/tcedir/optional/mcp251x.tcz
echo mcp251x.tcz >> /etc/sysconfig/tcedir/onboot.lst
sync
sudo reboot

Thanks I'm pretty new to tinycore, that was easy enough.

Hey all!
I also need to use piCore for CAN access, but the can-module extension seems to be gone.
I can't use the roll-your-own-method due to changed directories...
A plain tinycore would be fine as well, but for now I preferred a picoreplayer because of the ready-to-use interfaces.

How can I make use of the MCP2515?

Urgent Thanks! ;-)

Path to the modules for 17.x will be armhf/release/src/kernel/modules* or starting with aarch64 if you are on 64bit.

Start at https://mirrors.dotsrc.org/tinycorelinux/17.x/
