Bug#820022: Network is not working in Debian Testing arm64 for Gigabyte MP30-AR0 (APM X-Gene 1)
I tested with latest ISO from
http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/weekly-builds/arm64/iso-dvd/debian-testing-arm64-DVD-1.iso
(16-May-2016) and the network adapter was not working.
When I passed the kernel parameter clk_ignore_unused, the network
adapter worked without issue. The installer successfully obtained an
IP address and was able to download all files required for
installation.
More information about the use of clk_ignore_unused work-around and
the issues with xgene_enet when compiled as module can be found here:
