Hi Antonio,

For android config what we do is:
Fetch the latest Linaro tar balls from 
http://snapshots.linaro.org/android/~linaro-android/vexpress-linaro-mp/lastSuccessful
 and replace the kernel artefacts in the boot.tar

For Ubuntu I can see the following from snapshots area
http://snapshots.linaro.org/quantal/hwpacks/vexpress/latest

With my limited understanding on debian packages, Could you explain what 
exactly need to be replaced? I see lots of .deb package files listed there.

Also in terms of filesystem does the below one would be the right one for us to 
pick?
http://snapshots.linaro.org/quantal/images/nano-lava/latest

Looking at the LAVA documentation
http://lava-dispatcher.readthedocs.org/en/latest/jobfile-prebuilt.html

It mentions about a single image to be referenced via json file.

How do i arrive at such an image from the hwpack + nano-lava fs?

Thanks
Basil Eljuse...

I think that the easiest way would be to create a modified hardware pack
with your kernel and DTB, and let LAVA handle it like it already handles
the regular Linaro hardware packs.
