archive keyring on elinux is "not found"

didn’t know who to tell about the dead link, so I am doing it here.

wget [https://repos.rcn-ee.net/debian/pool/main/r/rcn-ee-archive-keyring/rcn-ee-archive-keyring_2015.01.28~bpo70%2b20150128%2b1_all.deb](https://repos.rcn-ee.net/debian/pool/main/r/rcn-ee-archive-keyring/rcn-ee-archive-keyring_2015.01.28~bpo70%2b20150128%2b1_all.deb)
sudo dpkg -i rcn-ee-archive-keyring_2015.01.28~bpo70%2b20150128%2b1_all.deb
http://elinux.org/Beagleboard:BeagleBoneBlack_Debian

actually, more generic. my BBB is running Linux 7.8 (wheezy). I am trying to update to a more recent kernel.

the kernel update instructions on elinux lead to kernel 3.8.13-bone70. I want to get to a newer kernel. (I think 3.14 is now available.) so, advice here [or a pointer to the latest instructions] would be great, too.

fixed..

Regards,

Well it depends, what does "cat /etc/dogtag" say?

if it's newer then say Sep/October 2014:

then just:

sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get install linux-image-3.14.34-ti-r52
; sudo reboot

But if it was so old you had to add my keyring, just grap a newer snapshot:

Regards,

thx, robert. my /etc/dogtag said it wasn’t that old: 2014-11-19. the keyring update made my apt-get update error go away. great.

suggestion: add the kernel update instructions in the same doc, too. kernel update with apt-get went very smooth. I wonder whether there is a way to apt-get to “most recent kernel”, rather than having to know the linux-image-… details . then again, maybe this is now fixed, too.

not sure if this matters, but

sudo dpkg -i rcn-ee-archive-keyring_2015.01.28~bpo70%2b20150213%2b1_all.deb

still complains.

thanks again, robert.

Which 'latest'

3.8
3.8-xenomai
3.14
3.14-rt
3.14-xenomai
3.18.x
3.19.x
4.0-rcx

Does the user have custom *.dtb? created by dtb-rebuilder..

I don't feel comfortable having a "sudo apt-get install linux-image-latest" . :wink:

Regards,

makes sense (not to have a simple "latest" when there are many
different kernels).

on the webpage, are these instructions still recommended?

  cd /opt/scripts/tools/
  git pull
  sudo ./update_kernel.sh
  sudo reboot

I would at least note that there is an apt-get alternative for the
following x kernsl.

/iaw

PS: (right now, I am wondering why the module usb-core is not
loading, which presumably is why I am not getting lsusb
identification.)

Well It's "recommended" for the original "may 2014" release.

So till CircuitCo and Latest Software Images - BeagleBoard update to a
recent image, then it'll probably disappear, as the complexity goes
up.

But there's no reason someone else can't write up a script to parse
all the options. :wink:

Your powering by 5 Volt Dc jack right???
