Problem with rolling/cooking

Hi all

In the first attempt to insytall SLitaz rolling on a hard disk and after tazpkg up, the command lsmod returned nothing and the command depmod complain about /lib/modules/linux-3.2-slitaz

For the second time I've just installed Slitaz rolling on a hard disk. Now the commands lsmod and depmod ok.

Now the command slitaz returns

Release cooking

Kernel 3.2-slitaz

The command uname -r returns 3.2-slitaz

However in tazpanel I can see the package linux 3.2.53 (the Linux kernel and modules) installed and /lib/modules/3.2.53-slitaz is a link to /lib/modules/3.2-slitaz

And the icon of /boot/vmlinuz-3.2-slitaz is the Windows flag !

I'm a little puzzled with all that.

Would you be so nice to answer my question : may I type tazpkg recharge && tazpkg up with no risk ?

PS : happily I've Slitaz stable on an other part of my disk !

Hi yves04

regarding the 3.2/3.2.53 issue,look here:

http://forum.slitaz.org/topic/problem-installing-slitaz-rolling-version#post-27495

The windows-flag-icon...lol...nice gag..;-)

--"tazpkg recharge && tazpkg up with no risk ?"--I wouldn't do that, or expect

that it will crash.

All in all I wouldn't take it too seriously, it's rolling....

Hi

The kernel has been fixed now by Christophe: http://hg.slitaz.org/wok/rev/db5b03f42dd9

Updating should be OK, but a newer rolling release could be better for the users?: http://mirror.slitaz.org/iso/rolling/

@Paul

really good news...thanks

and yes, a newer rolling release would be great, preventing the trouble to get

the old version running before One can update.

(because I'm always testing with a CD-RW and real Hardware)

Re: Problem with rolling/cooking

Thanks @sixofeight and @paul for your answers. For a while I think to keep the kernel 3.2 so with the command tazpkg block linux and tazpkg block linux-*

After that I've been able to use tazpkg up

I think change for the new Rolling one day.

Have a nice day.
