Verify dist-upgrade squeeze->wheezy #73

Closed andsens closed 10 years ago

andsens commented 11 years ago

Andrew Stone andrew@drivenlogic.com.au reported that the upgrade from squeeze to wheezy failed (or mor precise: the kernel remained on 2.6 after a reboot).

@JamesBromberger seems to have found the problem:

I believe our Squeeze amd64 AMIs didn’t include linux-image-amd64, and so this doesn’t pull in a newer kernel when upgrading to Wheezy. I suggest: apt-get update && apt-get install –y linux-image-amd64 for AMD64 (and linux-image-486 for i386) before doing a change to Wheezy to pull in the latest kernel; I think for the next Wheezy release we should ensure we include these meta-packages for the respective architectures.
