Toast Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 Was wondering if there are any kernel update scripts i can use to update from http://mirror.igorpecovnik.com/kernel/ http://mirror.igorpecovnik.com/u-boot/ would be nice im open to colab on a script if there isn't any Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Igor Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 No scripts, only download, unpack and dpkg -i at this point. The deb files has some post-install logic but nothing major. I only distinguish new / old kernel which is somehow important because of different loading process. The rest is more or less not done yet. The idea is to push to repository and that new versions are updated the standard way like on any other distribution via apt-get update It would be nice to retest updating on some real demo repository. To find and fix possible bugs. ... then added a switch UPDATE_REPOSITORY="YES" + sub script to do all this I was talking with a friend about this but we haven't made any progress yet so my Github lib section is script wise more or less up to date.Appreciate your help and open for ideas.

Toast Posted May 30, 2015 Author Share Posted May 30, 2015 that would be awesome to make a real repository instead of hacky updater scripts let me ponder this idea cause its certainly worthwhile to get it running like that instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Igor Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 I had many troubles on the way to keep it clutter free & close to default Debian / Ubuntu way & knowing with their bugs too I am also looking forward to develop further and glue things together so that upgrade process could run fully automatic - if wanted.

Toast Posted May 31, 2015 Author Share Posted May 31, 2015 So what distrobution platform have you looked on? my instinct tells me that aptly would be a nice start since it could handle multiple versions of files etc and is not as hard handed as the other. http://www.aptly.info/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Igor Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 I took a quick look over Aptly ... It looks great but I think it might be an overkill for our needs? I'll have only few files per board and so far there is no diff between distribution. Any simpler solution ... or is this simple enough to anyway start work with?

Toast Posted May 31, 2015 Author Share Posted May 31, 2015 Think its the lightest to create an apt repository atleast looking over the debian wiki it seems that way https://wiki.debian.org/HowToSetupADebianRepository Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
