Couple of observations: flash-kernel requires uboot-mkimage installed for most of it's targets but does not depend on it (only suggests). I'm not sure if that makes sense. But this is a generic issue.
Another issue is that the flash-kernel.conf will contain the wrong partition when on eMMC. This is because Snowball eMMC images contain a special partition that the boot rom requires, and this shows up as mmcblock0p1 which is the default boot device for linaro-media-create. It should be changed to p2 which is the FAT partition with the boot scripts and kernel. Doing the above plus applying the patch to flash-kernel (2.28ubuntu34linaro2) makes kernel flashing work for snowball. So what we need is to study how to make l-m-c create a flash-kernel.conf with the correct boot partition, integrate this patch and somehow make sure that uboot-mkimage is installed by default on the images. Then we should be good to go with deploying kernel updates through apt-get install (kernel packaging contains a flash-image hook). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/846394 Title: Snowball not supported To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/igloocommunity/+bug/846394/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
