Hi Michael, Do you have physical access? If "yes" a local attached USB drive can be used as a "local repo".
Below is an example, using an PC Engines APU2 "genx86_64-serial" image. ====================== Insert FAT formatted USB drive. pbx4 ~ # fdisk -l -- ... Device Boot Start End Sectors Size Id Type /dev/sdb1 * 63 524159 524097 255.9M 6 FAT16 -- pbx4 ~ # mkdir /tmp/disk pbx4 ~ # mount -t vfat /dev/sdb1 /tmp/disk ## Only needed to create a local repo on the USB drive, could be performed outside of AstLinux if desired. ## Requires public network access. pbx4 ~ # mkdir -p /tmp/disk/ast13se-firmware-1.x/genx86_64-serial pbx4 ~ # cd /tmp/disk/ast13se-firmware-1.x/genx86_64-serial/ pbx4 genx86_64-serial # curl -LO https://astlinux-project.org/mirror/ast13se-firmware-1.x/genx86_64-serial/ver pbx4 genx86_64-serial # curl -LO https://astlinux-project.org/mirror/ast13se-firmware-1.x/genx86_64-serial/astlinux-1.4.6.tar.gz pbx4 genx86_64-serial # curl -LO https://astlinux-project.org/mirror/ast13se-firmware-1.x/genx86_64-serial/astlinux-1.4.6.tar.gz.sha1 ## End of create a local repo on the USB drive ## Now assume the USB drive was pre-configured and skip the above "create a local repo" commands. ## Check the local repo files: pbx4 ~ # cd pbx4 ~ # find /tmp/disk/ast13se-firmware-1.x/ /tmp/disk/ast13se-firmware-1.x/ /tmp/disk/ast13se-firmware-1.x/genx86_64-serial /tmp/disk/ast13se-firmware-1.x/genx86_64-serial/ver /tmp/disk/ast13se-firmware-1.x/genx86_64-serial/astlinux-1.4.6.tar.gz /tmp/disk/ast13se-firmware-1.x/genx86_64-serial/astlinux-1.4.6.tar.gz.sha1 ## Upgrade using the local (pre-configured) USB drive: pbx4 ~ # upgrade-run-image check file:///tmp/disk/ast13se-firmware-1.x Current version is: astlinux-1.4-5507-f21c6b, Newest available version is: astlinux-1.4.6 pbx4 ~ # upgrade-run-image upgrade file:///tmp/disk/ast13se-firmware-1.x Successful upgrade to: astlinux-1.4.6 [after reboot] pbx4 ~ # cd pbx4 ~ # umount /tmp/disk pbx4 ~ # reboot ; exit ====================== And yes, this local repo method can be used for Runnix as well. Lonnie Tip -> For AstLinux 1.4.2 or later: If you have a exFAT formatted drive use "mount -t exfat ..." instead of "mount -t vfat ..." above. > On Jun 24, 2022, at 8:52 PM, Michael Knill > <michael.kn...@ipcsolutions.com.au> wrote: > > Is this easy to do? > I have a site where they are tough with security and I cant reach the > download server currently. > > Along with my previous question, a Runnix upgrade without network > connectivity may be handy too. > > Regards > > Michael Knill > Managing Director _______________________________________________ Astlinux-users mailing list Astlinux-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/astlinux-users Donations to support AstLinux are graciously accepted via PayPal to pay...@krisk.org.
