  • What is the reply to modprobe ath9k_htc? Commented Oct 24, 2015 at 16:06
  • @MariusMatutiae modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'ath9k_htc': Input/output error Commented Oct 24, 2015 at 16:07
  • There you go: you cannot load the driver. Search for ath9k_htc in the output of dmesg, and you will know more. It may be because of the SQUASHFS error. Commented Oct 24, 2015 at 17:35
  • @MariusMatutiae: The system (udev) probably tried to load the kernel module automatically and failed. The module insertion failure apparently wasn't reported by udev and therefore doesn't appear in dmesg, but the resulting I/O error certainly was.
