Hi everyone,
Please, someone knows to inform if this thread is open yet? I am resuming to Armbian after almost 4 years.
I have a TV BOX model T95Z Plus (RUPA Diamond S912) running for a long time ... but with a kernel 5.9.
Yesterday, I follow the steps described
in :
I upgraded all the packages to Brookworm, but no the kernel.
# apt dist-upgrade
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done
Calculating upgrade... Done
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
AND
# cat /etc/os-release
PRETTY_NAME="Armbian 25.5.2 bookworm"
NAME="Debian GNU/Linux"
VERSION_ID="12"
VERSION="12 (bookworm)"
VERSION_CODENAME=bookworm
ID=debian
HOME_URL="https://www.armbian.com"
SUPPORT_URL="https://forum.armbian.com"
BUG_REPORT_URL="https://www.armbian.com/bugs"
ARMBIAN_PRETTY_NAME="Armbian 25.5.2 bookworm"
BUT the problem is here:
echo "$(grep PRETTY_NAME /etc/os-release | cut -d= -f2-) | Kernel: $(uname -r)"
"Armbian 25.5.2 bookworm"
"Armbian 25.5.2 bookworm" | Kernel: 5.9.0-arm-64
So, I am afraid about how to choose the right kernel once that they are not supported anymore by @balbes150
To get a kernel from here https://www.armbian.com/amlogic-s9xx-tv-box/ (Debian with XFCE) should be a safe step?
How can I test it safely?
With
# aptitude search "linux-image"
we have a lot of kernels for arm-64 .... but which them will work?
In true, I am not sure by the right place to put my doubts ...
Someone could give me some guidance? Maybe to open a new thread of this help?
Thanks in advance.
