Something wrong with v1 kit and new images?

Using Zynthian
1

Hi,
after a long time i decided to give a v1 kit zynthian last stable image present on os.zynthian.org.
Then updated and … everything messed up.
It gives me always error screen. Changed v1 kit on webconf, but nothing.
then recompiled a 2021 -03-15 image and had same error status.
last, but not least, setting up wifi returns an error:
Command '/zynthian/zynthian-sys/sbin/set_wifi.sh on' returned non-zero exit status 255.

Anyway, burning last stable image then upgrading or directly using this 3-15 image,
This is the output on terminal and error splash screen:

Hi @ivanmonterosso !

The latest stable image should work. I’ve tested with some v1 and older prototypes and it works, so please, try again:

https://os.zynthian.org/2020-09-05-zynthianos-buster-lite-armhf-1.0.0-RC3.zip

Regards,

hi @jofemodo, actually this worked until upgrading.
So in other words i can’t upgrade anymore? :roll_eyes:

4

How do you do the upgrade? Please, don’t use “apt-get upgrade”. This will break the image on any zynthian kit, for sure.

Use the update option from the admin menu or from the webconf. Or type “update_zynthian.sh” from the shell. But NEVER run “apt-get upgrade”.

Regards

of course. i always mean updating from zynthian or webconf. but with fresh 2021-3-15 image or a previous stable from 2020 everything ends with an error screen and that output.

now wil try starting from this rc3 and i will let you know

6

This RC3 is the right one. The 2021-03-15 SD image is not supported and updates are not tested on it, so it’s normal you can’t update it.

7

Yes,Didn’t try to upgrade from that release, but didn’t work at all :rofl:.
I can confirm 2020-09-05 rc3 holds updates quite fine. But it’s not the release present inside “last-stable” zip, who actually didn’t get updates well.
Now I can discover all new features :grin:… And trying to get familiar with zynseq

8

Perhaps there is a bad link somewhere. Could you tell me what link did you use for downloading? I would like to fix it …

Enjoy the new features! There is a good bunch of them!! … jejeje!

Thanks

oh, link is actually working so the internal image. but once calling update (the right way) messes up with that message.

https://os.zynthian.org/zynthianos-last-stable.zip

so could be simply not the right image.

Looks like jackpeak build fails when calling update_zynthian.sh

Hi @antono !

What SD image are you using? Are you using the “stable” branch or changed to “testing”?
Can you specify “exactly” the steps you follow from burning the SD image to updating your zynthian?

Thanks,

Hi @jofemodo i tried with nightly first time but now swithced to stable and all works as expected.

I think we should discourage use of nightlies. They should now only really be used to validate the build continues to work and then maybe during lead up to a new release for testing

I moved the nightly builds to a separated directory. In the root there are the stable images only and the header advices to only use stable images. I think this should be enough.
