imx7solo disabling aWIFI driver on boot

[edwardtyrrell]

Hi,

I'm porting a BCM4343W WIFI driver from an imx7dsabresd to a imx7 Warp7 board and I need to prevent to WIFI driver from loading on boot as its causing a kernel panic. I'd like to get the OS running then run the driver manually.

What is the recommended way to disable this? Can I disable it simply in the boot process or does it require an out-of-tree module which I modprobe at another time?

BR,

Ed

Hi Edward

one can look at BCM4339 driver which could be modprobed,

it is described in attached Linux Manual Chapter 46 Wi-Fi BCM4339 Driver.

Best regards

Hi,

Thanks, but how can I disable it in the first place from running on boot?
