can not update pi4-rpi-eeprom 4/17 to stable?

no go, it lockup default not stable.

955

Looks like /etc/default/rpi-eeprom-update got renamed to /etc/default/rpi-update. Since the correct file is not there it is defaulting to the programā€™s default settings which is ā€œdefaultā€.

Try renaming /etc/default/rpi-update to /etc/default/rpi-eeprom-update. Then set in that file:

FIRMWARE_RELEASE_STATUS="stable"

in /etc/default/rpi-eeprom-update.

[ray@jellyfin default]$ sudo rpi-eeprom-update
*** UPDATE AVAILABLE ***
BOOTLOADER: update available
   CURRENT: Sat Apr 20 10:53:30 AM UTC 2024 (1713610410)

i do set FIRMWARE_RELEASE_STATUS=ā€œstableā€, above post.

Hi @Darksky. V6.8.10 is out but I guess that you would prefer V6.9.1 for the unstable branche, which is also released.

959

These new kernel packages has been pushed to the unstable branch when the mirrors sync.

I have combined the 3 packages raspberrypi-bootloader, raspberrypi-bootloader-x, and rpi-overlays packages into one package raspberrypi-bootloader. So when you install raspberrypi-bootloader you must tell the install to remove raspberrypi-bootloader-x, and rpi-overlays or the package will not install. I have done this to make things easier on me each week.

I have also sreamlined the kernel PKGBUILDā€™s to build a new custom config at build time to cut down on some of my work each week so there will not be a config file in the PKGBUILDā€™s git. If you need to see a config do a:

sudo modprobe configs and look at /proc/config.gz

Or if you have the kernel-headers package installed look at:

/usr/lib/modules/`uname -r`/build/.config

The linux-rpi4/5 packages are now using the 6.9.y branch. The linux-rpi-rc packages are now depreciated until there is a 6.10.y branch.

linux-rpi4 6.6.31-1
linux-rpi4-headers 6.6.31-1
linux-rpi4-mainline 6.9.1-1
