Problem with kernel version?

Help and Support Apple TV

Had an issue upgrading OSMC today on my ATV1, did the usual:

  • ssh-ed in, ran apt-get -f install, apt-get dist-upgrade
  • still had an issue so unmounted boot, fsck, remount rw
  • was able to complete dist-upgrade, but kernel now running is:

osmc@appletv:~$ uname -r
4.2.3-7-osmc

Logs are here:

It looks like maybe a kernel issue? I am not sure so need your expert advice!

Ok I have a little more idea what I’m doing. I have two kernels installed:

atv-image-4.2.3-7-osmc
atv-image-4.2.3-22-osmc

I suspect the upgrade was never able to boot 4.2.3.22, so it was then not able to remove 4.2.3.7.
Ideas?

I really don’t want to have to start from scratch, but I guess that is what it’s coming down too.

Have you had a quick search about the mount rw issue?

Just run sudo apt-get install --reinstall atv-image-4.2.DESIRED-VERSION

and all will be fine

I don’t think I have the rw issue, mount and remount works ok.
But I am getting the famous

E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

message, when I look back through the dpkg history it looks like it happens right after installing remote-client:
