Distribution upgrade to Buster fails
Hi, after an image backup, I tried the Buster distribution upgrade. After finishing with an error (nginx, E: subproces /user/bin/dpkg returned an error), I did from the command line an apt-get upgrade, which fixed the nginx update. It also suggested me to do an apt autoremove some unused packages.
I rebooted afterwards. the Xbian logo with install info comes up The Kodi Splash screen comes up, but with a little text showing that holding the shift key and ??? on an USB keyboard with point you towards the cli. After some waiting, it seems to finish a process in the CLI regardless and waits for user input to log in. I logged in with a mini -usb keyboard and did a reboot. Xbian start screen Kodi splash screen, for a long time Xbian start screen again with 'Loading...' After a minute or what, it goes back to the CLI and asks for user login credentials. I can access the shared folders over smb (therefore have access to kodi.log), but I can't login through SSH. This morning I had the same (although I than did the apt-get stuff after the failure) kodi log file (Click to View) |

Distribution upgrade to Buster fails
In the above shared log file, this part attracts my attention, although i can't find a solution yet:
ERROR: open_restricted - failed to open /dev/input/event0 (Permission denied) 2019-11-02 19:33:36.829 T:1880157552 ERROR: open_restricted - failed to open /dev/input/event1 (Permission denied) 2019-11-02 19:33:36.830 T:1880157552 ERROR: open_restricted - failed to open /dev/input/event2 (Permission denied) 2019-11-02 19:33:36.831 T:1880157552 ERROR: open_restricted - failed to open /dev/input/event3 (Permission denied) Update: in /var/log/upstart/xbmc.log I found this: segmentation fault Deletion of profile.xml in xbian/.kodi/userdata didn't help Altogether I think that this distribution upgrade corrupted more than one thing |

Distribution upgrade to Buster fails
I have tried many things and at the end I decided to go back to Stretch, for the time being.
I checked the sources.list and xbian.list. Both were pointing towards Buster I checked the xbmc.log file and it states 'segmentation fault' SSH doesn't work anymore, so I need to use an USB keyboard and work on the HDMI-screen (this works) Service xbmc restarts fails I checked the cmdline.txt, but that looked original I checked config.txt and no different than normal Same thing for /etc/fstab I tried to reboot without additional USB-sticks, USB-keyboard and network cable: no difference I changed the xbian.list to 'staging'. This generated a whole new list of upgradeable packages, including an alpha version of Kodi 19. I expected this to run, but the same result as mentioned in the previous posts, no change to be seen there. The only thing I can guess now, is that it have to do with me booting from an USB-stick on my RPI3 instead of from a SD-card. Maybe the script can't handle that. With the time spent, I might be better of with a fresh Buster image and reinsert my 'xbian-backup-home'. Would that work? I will also need to reinstall some other stuff that I run on the side on this RPI, but if I have documented everything properly for myself, it might save time at the end. |

RE: Distribution upgrade to Buster fails
If upgrade fails, it is very important to figure out why it fails
You can find complete log in file /tmp/aptstatus So I assume that your system stucked in the middle of the upgrade progress and this is the reason for a non functional system I have 2 installations on an external usb disk, so this can not be the problem And yes, backing up /home and recover it after fresh install would work |

RE: Distribution upgrade to Buster fails
And, you can do a manual upgrade to see directly what happens:
1) change all stretch to buster in file /etc/apt/sources.list and /etc/apt/sources.list.d/xbian.list 2) run sudo apt-get update 3) DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive sudo apt-get dist-upgrade -y --allow-downgrades -o Dpkg::Options::=--force-confdef -o Dpkg::Options::=--force-confold 2>&1 | tee /tmp/aptstatus 4) sudo apt-get install --reinstall xbian-update in 3), you have to look which packages will be REMOVED and it is important that upstart and xbian-package-xbmc is not removed and elogind will be installed Please note: you should not run this in a ssh session, because usually connection will be lost during apt-get run and this wil interrupt the upgrade process |

RE: Distribution upgrade to Buster fails
I just thought I'd try this as well with a USB SSD to see if it might help.
Whilst upstart is not in the removed packages list (good), elogin is not in the new packages list (not-so-good?). But it's upgrading anyway as there seems no way to stop it now. I'll let you know if it recovers to a working state or not. ----- With staging enabled it seemed to upgrade but upon completion and after several reboots no http access but ssh working. So I reverted to the previous snapshot. |

RE: Distribution upgrade to Buster fails
I guess that the -y in line 3) will start the upgrade right away. It was upgrading in the background while I was looking to see what packages were/were not included. Maybe I missed it, but I am very confident that it was not showing.
 I'll try again without -y as that will hopefully hold it at the yes/no prompt and I can look again. And here's why - initramfs-tools is held back for some reason! Terminal xbian@cinema2 ~ $ sudo apt-get dist-upgrade --allow-downgrades -o Dpkg::Options: :=--force-confdef -o Dpkg::Options::=--force-confold 2>&1 | tee /tmp/aptstatus Reading package lists...

RE: Distribution upgrade to Buster fails
Aarrrrrrgggggh!
Yes, there is something wrong. xbian-package-xbmc will be removed, and this ist absolutely not correct You could try to install initramfs-tools manually to see what happens: Terminal sudo apt-get install -s initramfs-tools |

How can I select all pacakages? While scrolling up, I only see packages starting with letter 'z' up to 'l', I guess just xx lines and not unlimited |
