rpi-eeprom-update not working.
by Pigi_102 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6K7AK)
Hello all,
I have a "sarpi" slackware 15+ installed on a rpi4 and being that I'm facing recently some trouble with boot, my first idea was to upgrade eeprom to a more recent version ( I have the one from 2020 as soon as the usb boot came out ).
So I tried with the rpi-eeprom-update -a as found elsewher on net but it complains about :
Code:root@casa aarch64:/var/log/packages# rpi-eeprom-update -a
BOOTFS: "/boot/platform/hwm_bw" is not a directorywhich, in my case, is true:
Code:root@casa aarch64:/var/log/packages# ls -l /boot/platform
/bin/ls: cannot access '/boot/platform': No such file or directoryI'm not sure how this came, as eveything is working ( almost ) well, but, is there a way to fix this, or eventually a way to update firmware manually ?
Thanks in advance.
