Raspberry Pi USB Gadget Tutorial - NicoHood/NicoHood.github.io GitHub Wiki
It is recommended to use a serial adapter to connect to the raspberry. That makes it a lot easier to debug the usb port while it is in device mode. Here are some tips on how to use the serial. Also see the Arch Wiki
However I still have an issue to input more chars than the terminal width. This post describes it, but i cannot solve it. https://askubuntu.com/questions/24358/how-do-i-get-long-command-lines-to-wrap-to-the-next-line
Using USB OTG (starting with a fresh jessie full image, lite could also work):
# This is required in the config.txt to enable usb device mode
echo "dtoverlay=dwc2" | sudo tee -a /boot/config.txt
# Now reboot and see if the pi still boots up with those settings (no gadget loaded yet)
sudo reboot
# You then can try to manually enable the g_ether module at runtime
sudo modprobe g_ether
# You can also unload it again and test another device
sudo rmmod g_ether
# To permanently add the g_ether (or any other) module, add it to /etc/modules
echo "dwc2" | sudo tee -a /etc/modules
echo "g_ether" | sudo tee -a /etc/modules
# And finally you might want to change the mac address for the g_ether module
# Make sure to not use a mac that conflicts with your network
# The host mac is the mac that the usb0 PC host adapter gets
# The device mac is the mac that the pi gets
# You have got two mac addresses, because it simulates a virtual connection with 2 ends of course.
echo "options g_ether host_addr=00:11:22:33:44:55" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/g_ether.conf
echo "options g_ether dev_addr=00:55:66:77:88:99" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/g_ether.conf
# After a reboot everything should work. The pi will look for a DHCP server on USB0
# You might want to enable ipv4 "shared to other computers" on your host system
sudo reboot
# You can now try to ssh into your pi. This might not work with windows.
