Thank you for those links. I was not aware of such console, so I spent some time studying it. Unfortunately, I cannot use it since the kernel stops before listing the Ethernet device. Another option i would like to try, is to test kernel versions in between 3.16 and 5.7, in order to find about when the problem start. I couldn't find a guide for cross compiling the debian kernel package. Do you know if it is possible to cross compile the powerpc kernel on a debian 10 machine with amd64 arch? Thank you, Giuseppe
