Robert, I haven't used dtb-rebuilder, does one need to recompile the Kernel to use it? Also, in the main dts, it appears only spi0 is enabled, but I use spi1 due to pin conflicts on the BBB cape headers; does dtb-rebuilder support spi1?

Currently I'm fighting with WiFi; I had scripts to detect the wlanx device using iw dev | grep "Interface" | awk '{printf $2}' but this is failing at boot; it works fine after boot. I tried hard coding the wlanx device, but now it seems to change; when I specify wlan0, it comes up as wlan1, and vice versa? It seems wireless networking changed somewhat from my previous version, and I haven't tracked down what yet. So wireless first, apt-gets second, pips third, device trees fourth, prus fifth, and then tracking down why previously debugged software stopped working. It might be interesting to keep track of how many issues come up.

Anyways, for now, I am going with /v4.1.x and will probably do Robert's suggestions re /

    Is it possible to control the SPI hardware through the PRU, and if
    so, would that hack still matter Robert ? No idea if spidev is
    used in such a case or not . . .


I didn't investage that side.. It's just when used as an overlay, that's needed..

If you setup a *.dtb with spi enabled in the dtb-rebuilder you don't need that workaround..
