Assuming you are on Ubuntu 24.04.2, and also I can't speak to the wisdom of the following. :D. But I assume this will all be fixed in 24.04.03 or 24.04.04. But to get around all the errors I did the following. Your mileage may vary, and I can't speak to the wisdom of what I'm doing below :D.
1. I ran an apt-get dist-upgrade to upgrade everything, this will fail. 2. I then downloaded a few newer versions of packages, from the links above. You should find the packages yourself instead of trusting blind links from account that posts every 5 years :). wget http://launchpadlibrarian.net/794517346/flash-kernel_3.107ubuntu13~24.04.4_arm64.deb wget https://people.canonical.com/~juergh/lp2111928/linux-buildinfo-6.8.0-1028-raspi_6.8.0-1028.32+cbd1_arm64.deb wget https://people.canonical.com/~juergh/lp2111928/linux-headers-6.8.0-1028-raspi_6.8.0-1028.32+cbd1_arm64.deb wget https://people.canonical.com/~juergh/lp2111928/linux-image-6.8.0-1028-raspi_6.8.0-1028.32+cbd1_arm64.deb wget https://people.canonical.com/~juergh/lp2111928/linux-modules-6.8.0-1028-raspi_6.8.0-1028.32+cbd1_arm64.deb The linux images are in a message in the 2nd bug report. I don't remember where I got the first from, but you just need to find the fixed version for the flash kernel. 3. dpkg -i *.deb This will fail, but that's fine, it should complain about newer images of linux-image-6.8.0, I would make sure that 6.8.0-1028 installs though, if not try the following: 3a. apt-get install -f (I think it will find one more package, it needs if the debs can't install). 4. I then remove the newer version of the kernel to stop it from upgrading apt-get remove linux-image-6.8.0-1029-raspi 5. Then remove the current kernel apt-get remove --purge linux-image-6.8.0-1018-raspi linux- headers-6.8.0-1018-raspi linux-modules-6.8.0-1018-raspi You'll get a prompt asking you to abort, hit no. 6. Hold the packages that we installed sudo apt-mark hold flash-kernel \ linux-buildinfo-6.8.0-1028-raspi \ linux-headers-6.8.0-1028-raspi \ linux-image-6.8.0-1028-raspi \ linux-modules-6.8.0-1028-raspi I hope this will stop future upgrades from breaking the system maybe. 7. Before rebooting make sure dpkg -i *.deb completes without errors, and that apt-get dist-upgrade says there is nothing to do. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2086774 Title: [SRU] Add CM5 to flash-kernel database To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/flash-kernel/+bug/2086774/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
