RE: Beta2 [UPGRADE INSTRUCTIONS ONLY!] - Ulk Bäär - 6th Dec, 2013 06:58 PM
Thank you for the explanation.
I booted with
cmdline.txt Wrote:rootflags=subvol=/@,autodefrag,compress=lzoand
your proposal Wrote:rootflags=subvol=.,autodefrag,compress=lzoand
cmdline.default Wrote:rootflags=subvol=root/@,autodefrag,compress=lzoin cmdline.txt
Some of those also wuthout ,autodefrag,compress=lzo .
Always black screen with only an underscore in the top left (not blinking) and only the red LED of the RPI lit.
Using the files provided in post #18 I get a complete black screen.
RE: Beta2 [UPGRADE INSTRUCTIONS ONLY!] - mk01 - 6th Dec, 2013 08:02 PM
so this actual status after reboot was called after apt-get finished upgrading the last available package ?
is initramfs.gz line uncomented in /boot/config.txt ?
if you all answer are yes, reformat /boot partition (NOT CARD, JUST THE FAT PART) and unpack http://xbian.brantje.com/others/boot20131206.zip to it.

No.
Fixed it. With the next boot it converts to btrfs, reboots and then recovery boot console.
Quote:Mounting root as: mount t ext4 -o rw, subvol=/@, autodefrag,compress=lzo,noatime /dev/mmcblk0p2 /rootfs
mount: unknown filesystem type 'ext4'
Mounting root partition /dev/mmcblk0p2 failed
If I change the rootfs type in the config.txt to btrfs it converts the sd card again and revocery boot console.
If I exit the console then a lot of rm -r /... stuff is going on.
Beta2 [UPGRADE INSTRUCTIONS ONLY!] - mk01 - 6th Dec, 2013 11:37 PM
thats ok already just correct subvol to root/@
now it is just /@

nope, this does not help. still recovery console.
I tried also your boot folder from post #62:
Quote:no filesystem could mount root, tried: btrfs
kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(179,2)
I guess it's still not converted to btrfs even the splash screen makes you belief it!?
RE: Beta2 [UPGRADE INSTRUCTIONS ONLY!] - mk01 - 8th Dec, 2013 12:03 AM
in that case check /boot/config.txt where probably
Code:
initramfs initramfs.gz 0x00a00000is missing or is commented out. put it as first line and try.
initramfs will try to convert in case physical partition is ext4, but rootfstype=btrfs.

Hello forum members,
I followed the upgrade instructions in this thread:
I placed this source in the sources.list file:
Terminal
deb http://xbian.brantje.com wheezy main
After that I ran the following commands:
Terminal
sudo -i
apt-get clean; apt-get update; apt-get upgrade
apt-get clean; apt-get update; apt-get upgrade
Now when I do this:
Terminal
apt-get install xbian-update
I get the following:

I finally got this working. I updated my sources.list file to:
Terminal
deb http://xbian.brantje.com wheezy main
deb http://mirrordirector.raspbian.org/raspbian/ wheezy main contrib non-free $
deb mirror://apt.xbian.org/mirror.txt wheezy main
deb http://mirrordirector.raspbian.org/raspbian/ wheezy main contrib non-free $
deb mirror://apt.xbian.org/mirror.txt wheezy main
Now it could find the dependencies packages, which first it didn't because I only had "deb http://xbian.branje.com wheezy main" in sources.list
After that the installation continued but I encountered the same error as calisro:

Any idea why it's not working for me?
Thank you for your help so far!
RE: Beta2 [UPGRADE INSTRUCTIONS ONLY!] - mk01 - 13th Dec, 2013 12:44 PM
@Ulk Bäär,
if it is Alpha5, do it in two steps. but before you start edit /etc/apt/sources.list and add stable and staging repository so it would look like:
Code:
deb http://xbian.brantje.com stable main
deb http://xbian.brantje.com staging mainthere are some changes yet to be released but should be of help for you. run "apt-get update". then in first round "apt-get install xbian-package-kernel". this should install initramfs as well. reboot after this gets installed. then if it works, continue with install xbian-update.

Hi,
I have the same situation here, but not the same versions of packages being installed or in errors.
I'm trying to update from Alpha 5, but got these errors :

You might want to run 'apt-get -f install' to correct these:

RE: Beta2 [UPGRADE INSTRUCTIONS ONLY!] - belese - 16th Apr, 2014 05:27 AM
Any idea?
and if you try what is proposed?
apt-get -f install
RE: Beta2 [UPGRADE INSTRUCTIONS ONLY!] - mk01 - 16th Apr, 2014 05:31 AM
@anagram
just follow the general rule for such cases and list all NEEDED (and reported as missing or not going to be installed) packages onto command line for apt-get install. so in your case probably
Code:
sudo -i
apt-get install xbian-update xbian-package-kernel xbian-package-cec xbian-package-initramfs-tools .......!!! just don't put any packages with "-6q" suffix, this are Cubox packages. if any deb will be listed by apt-get as "xbian-package-kernel OR xbian-package-kernel-6q" always take the one WITHOUT suffix.
RE: Beta2 [UPGRADE INSTRUCTIONS ONLY!] - anagram - 16th Apr, 2014 05:49 AM
It seems to be going in circles.
Whatever package I try to install, it says others are missing, and if I try to install those, the message says the first ones I tried are missing.
I don't get it.
How can I get the full list of what is needed, reported missing or not being installed?
what does the part "xbian-update (>= 1.0.2-7c) but 1.0-0.5 is to be installed" mean? Feels like I have version greater than 1.0.2-7 installed and that it needs a smaller version (1.0-0.5) to be installed.
Beta2 [UPGRADE INSTRUCTIONS ONLY!] - mk01 - 16th Apr, 2014 02:41 PM
don't replace the package names. always ADD those still 'missing' to one cmd line so it will grow. until you satisfy apt-get's need.
