Formatting SD card ext4 - how do I upgrade kernel?
-
Hi all,
I started following the pivot-overlay instructions on one of the recent blog posts (https://onion.io/2bt-booting-from-an-sd-card/) then branched off to the formatting ext4 instructions. One of the first steps is to install some packages, and I keep failing there with some unmatche dependencies. I believe this is because some of the ext4 tools need a later kernel version. I am running firmware version (0.1.9 (b149), latest)
Any thoughts/feedback would be great!
opkg output follows.

@matthew-yockney kmod-fs-ext4 and kmod-usb-storage-extras are already installed, there is no need to install or upgrade them. As you can see, opkg literally says
Upgrading kmod-usb-storage-extras on root from 4.4.42-1 to 4.4.46-1...-- it couldn't upgrade something that didn't exist, which means it already exists and opkg just tries to upgrade it.

So you are saying there is not actually error?
That last line seems pretty clear?
Will try tonight, thank you.

Thanks @WereCatf . You were right, it was already configured. (You knew that, but whatev's!)
On another note, if anyone is interested, the distfeeds file for opkg was stillpointed at an old, cut down one. I noticed a .new version in the directory and swapped the configs around - opkg behaving much better now. Can install git and so on without it telling me it doesn't know it!

0.1.9 b149 is pretty old. I am one behind at b156, but it has been stable with some bugs worked out. Maybe download and install it, as a number of other packages have been upgraded since the release of b149. Or even to b157. Just a thought.
