rev5 upgrade notes

This page describes the steps necessary to upgrade from rev4 to rev5.

Upgrading packages

First step

Change this line in /etc/apt/sources.list:

deb http://download.hackable1.org/packages/iscape /

to:

deb http://security.debian.org/ lenny/updates main
deb http://download.hackable1.org/debian rev5 main

(replace "rev5" by "rev5rc1" for the rev5rc1 intermediate release)

then run as root:

# apt-get update
# apt-get upgrade

Warning: this currently breaks matchbox-window-manager's theming (and maybe more)

Second step

Some packages were introduced in rev5 specifically. You may want to install them as well:

# apt-get install gprs h1artwork h1settings nodm psplash

Kernel

The kernel requires special attention:

# apt-get install linux-image-gta02
# cp /boot/uImage-gta02-hackable1.bin /boot/uImage.bin
# cp /boot/uImage-gta02-hackable1.bin /boot/uImage

And for Qi support:

# ln -sf uImage.bin /boot/uImage-GTA02.bin

Configuration changes
