Me too.  It's the D1 that doesn't work.  Strangely I can plug the same SD
card into the B1 and it works, whereas in the D1 it does not.  So there is
something strange going on.

I dont know.

Right, as we should expect.  I'm surprised that a proposed change from
2017/2018 hasn't made it into mainline in 2-3 years!

So where does this leave us?  I am not at all sure where the problem lays.
 I don't know if it's a GPIO issue or something else?  But when I plug the
Rev D1 board in the ethernet lights do not light up at all, as if it's not
being powered on.  And of course "ip addr" claims "NO CARRIER" for eth0.

Any idea how I can (help) debug this?
