can drivers in NUC image

Product support balenaOS
1

Gents,

I need to verify that the NUC image has generic CAN driver support for the peak usb to can device. So

  1. How do I verify what drivers are included in a build ?
  2. Ho do I enable said kernel drivers assuming they are available in the build.

Is my assumption that getting extra drives would necessitate building a custom BalenaOS correct ?

Hi,

Here is the overview about the a balena device https://www.balena.io/docs/learn/welcome/primer/#on-your-device, there is a copy of the kernel configuration is always available on a device in /proc/config.gz please have a look at our docs here to determine if a kernel option is enabled https://www.balena.io/docs/learn/more/masterclasses/host-os-masterclass/#9-determining-if-a-kernel-config-option-is-enabled.

Also you’re right, if you want to add extra drivers then you should first do a custom balenaOs build, here is the guide for it https://www.balena.io/docs/learn/more/masterclasses/host-os-masterclass/#9-determining-if-a-kernel-config-option-is-enabled
