Tags: patch

Hi,

Please include the i2c_exynos5 module into the kernel-image udeb, so the
Debian installer detects the network card of the Odroid XU4 and supports
installation over network. I believe this partly solves #880494 as well.

The attached patch should fix this.

Cheers Jochen

I don't think it should be added to the kernel-image udeb.  i2c_exynos5
depends on i2c-core which is notionally in i2c-modules, but the package
dependency is the other way around.  At the moment i2c-core is actually
built-in, but if that ever changes the this dependency inversion would
break the build.

So I think i2c_exynos5 belongs in i2c-modules, and that's where I'll
put it.

Ben.

That sounds much better, thx :).
