Hi everyone,

I'm running Unraid 7.3.1 on a Shuttle NE10N (Intel N100) and after a reboot I'm getting "device eth0 does not exist" with no network connectivity.

The NIC is a Motorcomm YT6801 (lspci: "Motorcomm Microelectronics YT6801 Gigabit Ethernet Controller rev 01"), which has no native kernel driver yet.

System info:

- Unraid: 7.3.1

- Kernel: 6.18.33-Unraid

- Device: Shuttle NE10N (Intel N100)

- NIC: Motorcomm YT6801

I've already tried:

- Deleting network.cfg → no effect

- ip link show → MAC address shows as 00:00:00:00:00:00 (driver not loaded)

- Downloading the driver source from https://github.com/h4rm00n/yt6801-linux-driver and trying to compile → fails with "make: command not found"

- Trying to cross-compile on a Linux Mint machine → couldn't find kernel headers in bzroot/bzmodules/bzroot-gui

I don't have a USB Ethernet adapter available right now, so I can't get NerdTools installed to compile on the server itself.

Is anyone running the same hardware (Shuttle NE10N or any device with YT6801) on Unraid 7.3.1 / kernel 6.18.33-Unraid who could share a precompiled yt6801.ko for this kernel version?

Alternatively, if anyone knows where to find the correct Unraid kernel headers for cross-compilation, that would also be very helpful.

Thanks in advance!

If the driver is really missing, and an in-tree driver exists, best bet is to make a feature request from it, but please post the diagnostics first.

Hi JorgeB,

thanks for your answer and sorry for my late reply!

Here are the diagnostics as requested. Attaching the full ZIP above.

Key findings from the diagnostics:

System:

- Unraid: 7.2.7

- Kernel: 6.12.90-Unraid

- Hardware: Shuttle NE10N (Intel Alder Lake-N / N100)

The problem — confirmed missing driver:

From lspci:

```

01:00.0 Ethernet controller: Motorcomm Microelectronics YT6801 Gigabit Ethernet Controller [1f0a:6801] (rev 01)

Subsystem: Device [2066:9806]

(no "Kernel driver in use" line)

```

The YT6801 is detected on the PCIe bus but has no driver loaded. It does not appear in lsmod at all. The NIC shows MAC 00:00:00:00:00:00 and eth0 fails with "device does not exist" on boot.

Thanks!

The driver is missing, but as far as I can find, there's no Linux in-tree kernel driver, only an out-of-tree driver, so I'm afraid you would need to wait for the driver to be added to the kernel upstream.
