BeagleBoard xM, no eth0 after pacman -Syu

[more10]

I choose not to upgrade pacman, then Y on remaining questions. Now eth0 is not detected at boot.

I don't have a RTC battery installed yet.

Any suggestions?

There is a new image. I will install it.

Problem gone with new image.

In case anyone also had this problem, i suggest to look at the pacman output and move the /boot/uImage to the first partition.

i had this same problem

Heads up: look at adding an fstab entry so this doesn't bite you in the future.

Hi. It seems I have the same problem but I don't understand what have to be done (and why). Did you have to change the bootloader image?

mkdir /tmp/boot
mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /tmp/boot
cp /boot/* /tmp/boot/*
sync
umount /tmp/boot
')

I have found the cause of the issue: the dhcpcd/netcfg service starts before the network card module. You just need to add the module name (smsc95xx) to /etc/modules-load.d/*.conf.
