The on-board wifi chip is not detected after installing Devuan using the devsus script.

When I connect an external USB key (Atheros AR9271 [0cf3:9271]) it works.

Perhaps the hardware on this system is a bit different but I am not sure how to list devices or otherwise debug this on an ARM system, lspci is not very useful (it complains there is no /proc/bus/pci).

The on-board WiFi chip requires non-free firmware and it won't be supported in Devsus. Feel free to fork Devsus and add non-free software, but please 1) rename your fork, so Devsus users don't take your fork and use non-free software by mistake and 2) good luck.

Thank you for clarifying, the documentation indicated "In addition, the images contain the latest firmware for the freedom-friendly, Atheros AR9271 based WiFi dongles." but I was under the impression the on-board chip was also the same chipset.
