Hello. I'm playing with my old ARM Chromebook,model xe303c12. I've recompiled the kernel to enable KVM,such as qemu 5.1 and libvirt from source code because I want to virtualize FreeBSD 13.2 arm 32 bit. As default OS I've installed Debian 12. So now my system sounds like this :
$ lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID: Debian Description: Debian GNU/Linux 12 (bookworm) Release: 12 Codename: bookworm $ uname -a Linux chromarietto 5.4.244-stb-cbe #8 SMP PREEMPT Sat Aug 19 22:19:32 UTC 2023 armv7l GNU/Linux $ uname -r 5.4.244-stb-cbe $ kvm-ok INFO: /dev/kvm exists KVM acceleration can be used $ qemu-system-arm --version QEMU emulator version 5.1.0 (v5.1.0-dirty) Copyright (c) 2003-2020 Fabrice Bellard and the QEMU Project developers $ python3 --version Python 3.11.2 on my last experiment I've switched from Devuan 4 to Debian bookworm,"burning" this image file to the sd card : https://github.com/hexdump0815/imagebuilder/releases/download/230220-01/chromebook_snow-armv7l-bookworm.img.gz I'm using it right now,but some huge errors are destroying my system files reboot after reboot,because they are produced at a regular intervals : [ 10.480204] mwifiex_sdio mmc2:0001:1: info: FW download over, size 533976 bytes [ 10.719132] mwifiex_sdio mmc2:0001:1: WLAN FW is active [ 10.719369] Bluetooth: vendor=0x2df, device=0x912a, class=255, fn=2 [ 11.089624] btmrvl_sdio mmc2:0001:2: sdio device tree data not available [ 11.091551] mwifiex_sdio mmc2:0001:1: CMD_RESP: cmd 0x242 error, result=0x2 [ 11.091563] mwifiex_sdio mmc2:0001:1: mwifiex_process_cmdresp: cmd 0x242 failed during initialization [ 11.133736] mwifiex_sdio mmc2:0001:1: info: MWIFIEX VERSION: mwifiex 1.0 (14.68.29.p59) [ 11.135281] mwifiex_sdio mmc2:0001:1: driver_version = mwifiex 1.0 (14.68.29.p59) [ 12.914015] NET: Registered protocol family 38 [ 19.058217] mwifiex_sdio mmc2:0001:1: info: trying to associate to 'ziomario' bssid [ 19.093260] mwifiex_sdio mmc2:0001:1: info: associated to bssid successfully [ 19.116924] mwifiex_sdio mmc2:0001:1: CMD_RESP: cmd 0x23f error, result=0x2 [ 19.129679] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_CHANGE): mlan0: link becomes ready [ 19.134791] mwifiex_sdio mmc2:0001:1: CMD_RESP: cmd 0x23f error, result=0x2 [ 31.849443] TPS65090_RAILSDCDC1: disabling [ 31.858024] TPS65090_RAILSDCDC2: disabling [ 31.868245] TPS65090_RAILSDCDC3: disabling [ 31.878250] TPS65090_RAILSLDO1: disabling [ 31.887352] TPS65090_RAILSLDO2: disabling [ 115.862293] mwifiex_sdio mmc2:0001:1: CMD_RESP: cmd 0x23f error, result=0x2 If I don't get wrong,it is the wireless driver that has been added to the system that's causing the problem,right ? or maybe it is incompatible with the Debian 12 ? Let me know please. I don't want to return to Devuan because libvirt is easier to configure on Debian. But take in consideration that those errors don't happen on Devuan. -- Mario.
