Hello,

I have a problem with brctl with my embedded device.
Everytime I try to create a bridge, I get the following:

# brctl addbr br0
brctl: bridge br0: Invalid argument

On linux, the bridge is created as a module and loaded at startup (with
modprobe -v bridge I get no errors and with lsmod the bridge is listed).

Does anybody has every tried brctl with linux 2.4 ? I know there were compile
errors with older busybox version and I was wondering if only compile issues
have been fixed or also functional problem.

Thank you for your support.

Thierry Matalini

My system:
Linux kernel 2.4.20 (Montavista Pro 3.1)
BusyBox v1.17.2
PowerPC Linux plattform (MPC 8247, PowerQuiccII)
