MemberHi,
I’ve upgraded to v3.8.0 and there is an error with wifi driver :
extract from dmesg :
[ 5.694208] Intel(R) Wireless WiFi driver for Linux

MemberI think error -2 is a “no such file or directory” error.
I suspect you are missing the firmware file for your wifi chip, iwlwifi-3160-17.ucode.
These files are usually under stupid licences that do not allow re-distribution, so they are not included in the OS install, and need to be installed afterwards.
I looks like you can get the file you need from here: https://github.com/OpenELEC/iwlwifi-firmware/tree/master/firmware (I just found this with google).
But I’m not sure where in the filesystem you need to put it, possibly under /lib/firmware/

MemberThanks for the hint but.
The file system is read only,root@zershell firmware> touch test
touch: cannot touch `test’: Read-only file system
root@zershell firmware> pwd
/lib/firmwareI had a look in /Database but didn’t find any place for drivers.
I there a way to add drivers in Zeroshell ?
Thanks
