@robertstrom Just run sudo sh ~/Downloads/change-kernel-flags
without -r to change the flags again. -r is needed when you want to restore an old kernel or undo the flag changes. Normally you won't want this.
I will look a the script and see why it can't find your backup kernel, because that should work also.
@divx118 - Thanks ... that worked great! Appreciate the response.!
@robertstrom Thanks for the feedback that it worked.
Hello,
My ChromeOS was updated to 47.0.2526.110 (64-bit) a few days ago and I went to run Virtualbox in my Trusty XFCE crouton and the VM would not start.
At that point I went into the crosh, entered a shell and issued the command
sudo sh ~/Downloads/change-kernel-flags -r
When I issue this command I get this error
chronos@localhost ~ $ sudo sh ~/Downloads/change-kernel-flags -r List of backup kernel files in "/mnt/stateful_partition/backups"
No backup kernels found in /mnt/stateful_partition/backups
I checked the /mnt/stateful_partition/backups directory I found that there was a backup file in it kernel_A_20151220_163251.bin
Then I tried moving the backup file out of the directory and reran the command. Still the same error.
NOTE: my crouton is on an external SSD drive. I have not remapped the crouton directory. I start the crouton using this command
sudo enter-chroot -c /media/removable/Chroots/chroots -n xfce startxfce4
Hopefully someone can help me to get my kernel flags updated so that I can run my Virtualbox VM's again.
TIA,
Robert
