Hi,
it's me again with an update problem of the kernel.
i like kernels.... and i like to update them in a wrong way :)
so here are my steps so far.
Device: Freerunner
rootfs: Om2008.8
kernel: Om2008.8
i installed the Om2008.8 and did a "opkg update & opkg upgrade".
i deleted the neo-feeds.
i added this feeds to opkg:
http://buildhost.openmoko.org/daily-feed/om-gta02/
http://buildhost.openmoko.org/daily-feed/armv4t/
http://buildhost.openmoko.org/daily-feed/all/
i did again "opkg update & opkg upgrade" every day.
now i realised that the opkg upgrade installed new kernel-modules.
i.e.: kernel-module-g-ether_2.6.24+git33+*-r2_om-gta02.ipk
so far so good, but it didn't update a new kernel!
so i looked into "opkg info kernel" and i saw that there is installed a
"neo1973" kernel:
kernel - 2:2.6.24+git75940+*-r1.0
and the kernel "kernel_2.6.24+git33+*" is just marked as "unknown ok
not-installed".
so my questions are:
why did he updated some modules (far away from all) but not the kernel?
is the kernel "kernel_2.6.24+git33+*" from
"http://buildhost.openmoko.org/daily-feed/om-gta02/" the right kernel to
be up to date with the stable branch?
is there a easy way to reinstall the kernel and all packages? (something
like "opkg reinstall kernel-module-*" ).
cu Beni
P.S.: i now used 'opkg list | grep kernel | grep git75940 | cut -d " "
-f 1 | tr "\n" " " ' to know what files i have to update
