enabled them last week: sudo apt-get update ; sudo apt-get install linux-image-3.14.17-ti-r19 ( i need to add a : linux-image-bb.org-v3.14-meta-package ) > Out of curiosity, currently apt knows of three kernel series (run on a > 2014-09-03 installation): `-ti`, `-bone`, and what is presumably the > unsuffixed Debian upstream kernels.

The "-ti" we are a basing on a ti branch: (git.ti.com, patchset >20Mb).. Plus the 'debian' linux-image-armmp will also work once we switch to jessie.. (you can even install ubuntu's linux-image *.deb) the bootloader will find it. v3.14-ti repo: https://github.com/beagleboard/linux/tree/3.14 Regards, -- Robert Nelson http://www.rcn-ee.com/ -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
