Archlinux image - cant get ethernet up and running

medeiros

Hello,
just inastalled the Archlinux_minimal.img from 19.10.2015 via mega.nz
After installation I was able to log into my OrangePi PC using the serial console. The vertical USB does'nt work, the two horizontal do. (was able to mount a USB drive).
Tried to activate the ethernet interface, but failed:

Both leds on the ethernet link are on permanently. No blinking - no reaction. I guess some hardware setting is missing ?!
On a different image (slackware) I have seen, that the LEDs are not permanently on and blink according to the network traffic.
I did:
>>>>systemctl -l status systemd-networkd.service<<<<

Has somebody an idea what to do to get the ethernet running ?

Have you copied the right script.bin for OPI-PC ?

Thanks for the hint - neanwhile I found the required information here:
http://linux-sunxi.org/Orange_Pi_PC
After copying the correct script.bin it is working as expected.
