TX2 Flashing / WiFi Problem

Hello all. I’ve been able to flash my TX2 from my source code that I synced from source_synch.sh

L4T version: 28.2.1
JetPack version: 3.3

I use these lines to flash my device; (commands are mostly from ridgerun)

cd $DEVDIR/
sudo ./apply_binaries.sh 
sudo ./flash.sh jetson-tx2 mmcblk0p1

When the flash finished, the TX2 cold-rebooted and there was a single [FAILED] message in dmesg. But I didnt really care about it since it started just fine, with one exception, WiFi.

The error is this;

[FAILED] Failed to start Load Kernel Modules.
see 'systemctl status systemd-modules-load.service' for details

And when I run (check picture)

Tried ifconfig but there was no wlan0. I couldn’t get it to work. (Notice that before custom compiled source, I was able to use WiFi and connect to the internet with the current setup, so It’s not hardware related)

I got Warning

but it continued compiling and flashing just fine. It didnt exit. But I suspect this is what causing my Wi-Fi problems.

Adding compile/flash output of my script above. Please help me.

ForumSubmit.txt (207 KB)

Added; CONFIG_LOCALVERSION=“-tegra” inside defconfig

and then edited;

“scripts/setlocalversion” file, making scm_version function return nothing.

scm_version()
{
        local short
        short=false 
        return
}

Now the WiFi driver is working as intended! Hope this helps anyone trying to find an answer.

Btw, “CROSS32CC” is not used except in the original R24.x releases. You can safely leave this out of any kernel compiles (this was for 32-bit support during the transition from 32-bit to 64-bit).

Oh I see, so it’s effectless… The solution was based on you as well. Thank you linuxdev!
