Never Ending Installation
by business_kid from LinuxQuestions.org on (#530SK)
H have a RazPi 4 and have done the following:
I apparently have made an elementary mistake A quick look at the /boot dir left me thinking I had installed an Arm7(5.4.23) until /boot ran out of space, and the 5.4.36 one shows in /var/log/packages also. The (Armv8) kernel8.img seems alive & well, however. I ran 'ls -lht' on the /boot partition and the dates differbetween Arm7 & Arm8 stuff. They can go quickly enough, but how do I stop/delete the installer? What's it doing on the sdcard anyway?
- Grabbed the 4 Arm8 packages
- Put the img.xz on /dev/mmcblk0p1 of the sdcard as instructed
- Made mmcblk0p2=256M swap and mmcblk0p3 as ext4 as the rest of 16G.
- Grabbed the 32Bit current and put it on a usb stick.
- installed to the micro sdcard on the RazPi
