if you ever made your device writable, installed any debs or changed any
files that are usually in the readonly space there is no guarantee at
all that any update will ever work and you are pretty much on your
own ...
the solution is pretty simple, don't tinker with the device if you need
to rely on it ... the OTAs are binary diffs between two predefined
readonly images, if you changed the base image of this diff process in
any way nobody can tell what happens ...
while you *can* make it writable all documentation that talks about it
definitely has a big fat warning that you are likely ending up in a
situation where it will break and you have to re-flash from scratch ...
beyond this, the askubuntu help under the above url pretty clearly
describes what you need to do imho ... please feel free to provide your
own answer there if you think it can be described any better or in more
detail.
this is why we use askubuntu, you are able to improve what's there if
you feel the need ;)
