From my experience you always have to specify all modules and the modules they depend on. I for example had to specify this for zfs support in the config file: makeoptions MODULES_OVERRIDE="zfs opensolaris acl_nfs4" I actually only wanted zfs, which depends on opensolaris which then again depends on acl_nfs4 (probably because I sepcified nfs4 support in the config file) I only found out after a few tries. It's really not ideal, that module dependencies are not resolved. But once you know about it, you can live with it :-) > > BTW, I tried this on RPI2, and now will try on an orangepi one. Is that the SDIO based internal WiFi? Let me know if it works!
