Thanks to [email protected], [email protected], and
[email protected]. VERY valuable answers.
But I'm holding off on implementing any of that, for the moment, until
I better understand what packages get updated when. Don't want to
block/freeze that wrong stuff.
But I have updated my notes for when I am ready.
So recently a new Raspbian kernel came out, to make circumstances ripe
for playing with preventing apt-get from upgrading my kernel.
I created the file /etc/apt/preferences.d/kernel exactly as Rich
suggested, and that seems to work.
As for finding out when I should build a new kernel there was the
question of how to tell me when a new kernel should be built. At the
moment I have a decent habit of manually running apt-get pretty
frequently, so I decided to add another manual step:
cd ~/pi-linux
git fetch --tags
And see whether there is a new stable tab from which to build. (The fact
that I don't currently have the ability to send e-mail from that machine
did enter in…)
Thanks,
-kb, the Kent who did a new kernel build early this week, it worked, it
came back from a reboot, etc.//
