[Raspberry Pi] Warning - Kernel 4.4.38 breaks boot on RPi 1 & 2

Wed, 28 Dec 2016 22:00:29 +0000

About 14 days ago, RPi Kernel Version 4.4.38 was published. However, something went very wrong somewhere: Raspbery Pi Models 1 and 2 do not boot anymore. As a quickfix I would recommend to download the 4.4.37 Kernel from the Github Repo (https://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware/) and replace the boot Partition on your RPi 1 or 2 SDCard with the /boot path from the 4.4.37 ZIP File - and it should boot again. If you’re RPi is still working - do not update your kernel until this problem is solved! Issue on Github.

[RaspPi] Snappy Ubuntu Core on Raspberry Pi 2

Well, I finally got my Raspberry Pi 2 and just could not hold back and wanted to test Snappy Ubuntu Core and give a little introduction and how that thing works.

Ok, but short into: What is Snappy Ubuntu Core?
Well it is meant to be a secure operating system for embedded applications.
It is based on an transactional system-management and can even rollback upgrades of the system core.
There are three kinds of Snappy Ubuntu Core Components:
Snappy Ubuntu Core itself (Core), Frameworks and Apps.
Frameworks can access the Core in certain ways and thus need to be reviewed by the Ubuntu Team.
Apps are completly isolated from each other and have limited access to the system, therefore they don’t need special security profiles or reviews, which makes publishing easier.
Ok, and everything is controlled via the command “snappy”.
