Flashed... then got infinite reboot :( I don't use power menu or anything that modifies the below:

Well, I've completed the SSU successfully -- I had Sliderotate, was booting from SD, and had a good chunk of SDK installed to boot. No problems; I just updated the offending packages (four I'd held back for the SDK, and xserver-xomap which was odd-versioned for xrandr) with
Code:
apt-get install <packages>
(and told it yes, remove the packages depending on the old versions.)
Installed the update, waited for the reboot, flashed my initfs.bootmenu.jffs2 (with flasher-3.0), rebooted to the SD, and it finished nicely. Since it wouldn't let me install until I resolved the conflicting packages, I had no option to make things fail...

Honestly, I expected worse from this thread.

Tonight I connected it manually to my WLAN and within a few seconds had the flashing icon...
I am starting to think the 24 hour window applies globally, ie, YMMV. So it possibly depends on other factors as you say, one being your timezone, most recent connect time, etc.

To check when the next update will fire on your device, you can paste this into a Terminal (doesn't have to be root):

Code:
perl -ne '$f |= /check_for_updates/; next unless $f; if (/name="time" type="int64">(\d+)/) { @d = localtime($1); print "Update check time: $d[1] minutes past $d[2]\n"; exit }' /var/lib/alarmd/alarm_queue.xml

These things change the way the tablet works. Nokia aren't going to be able to test and support these things. It's up to the people who package these add-ons to find a way of safely reverting back to the previous behaviour if they find the world they're inhabiting gone wrong. Or to disable auto-update. Or to better inform their users.
I run linux since the mid 90's (first slackware and then suse) and never ever had issues like this.
How on earth can a package install/uninstall fail because a post install script doesn't find some file or can't perform an action like to kill an already non-running daemon? Or because a rc.d link is or isn't active? Or, still much worse, because some user owned file is or isn't somewhere?
That's plainly incredible

I wouldn't use the word "amazingly" either, although I did say "snappier".

I've noticed that sites that used to frustrate me (like amazon.com) no longer do. The difference appears to be in the way images are cached-- microb is loading the bulk of the page now and then loading images, which is more useful for me. I am not sure if I'm seeing actual code change, though, or just a fluke.

Anyway, the speed improvements for me are noticeable, but not necessarily remarkable. And some of the speed-up could be mere perception IF the html elements really are loading differently.

I can confirm that the new version of initfs_flasher works as advertised. This means that the SD Boot problem can be considered solved.

Good night and good luck!

What about you?
This is precisely my situation. I used penguinbait's deb to clone the OS (and set up the bootmenu) almost as soon as I got my N810 and have been running from the internal card ever since. Has anyone with this configuration updated successfully, and if so, could you let us know what you did?

If you can clearly identify such problems - ideally including why your tablet got into the state it did - then Bugzilla is the place to log them.

I don't doubt you - and many others - are having issues; but something is different on all your tablets. Software doesn't randomly fail.

Identifying the cause (or even the underlying symptoms of the problem) in Bugzilla will help both you, and others, in future.

A 20-page thread of wailing, gnashing of teeth and cries of "G4h, N0ki4 ate my baybeeees" isn't going to help anyone much. At best, it discourages others who've made potentially dangerous modifications from installing the update. At worst, it leaves an impression of poor quality on this release. Given it works for the silent majority, that would be unfortunate.

Now, there are some specific things we can identify with this release which are (to be charitable) poor QA. Others which are anti-social:
  • Reinstalls all the PDF manuals. (In /home/user/MyDocs, so it doesn't even take into account MYDOCSDIR)
  • Re-enables the Tableteer and Quick Contact applets, even if they were disabled.
  • For some reason, has a Maemo version of v4.1.1 which is... unexpected. #3747
  • Extras repo is disabled (seems to be inconsistent). #3566

There are probably others, but specificity is key.

My apologies-- that's how it had been communicated to me when we first began testing SSU. I see now that the explanation is overly simplistic.

And to the power users complaining about SSU failures-- have you not noticed that tablets configured within safe parameters are updating fine? That includes mine (in testing I have experienced several more SSU updates than the general public has seen). Every SSU update I've run has worked flawlessly, with the exception that early on one backup did not properly process (and we had been informed upfront that such would be the case).

As to claims of using linux for years without experiencing update problems, sorry, I'm skeptical. I'm on a linux distribution group and see problems with every single update (Redhat).

Because the core package management system is designed to be conservative and not break things.

Unfortunately, there's a convergence of changes that leaves it prone to stalling painfully.
  • High-level packaging of the whole update into one; prevents an update from largely succeeding (e.g., except for the documentation), and leaving some packages cleanly left at the old version.
  • High-level UI that limits the ability of the administrator to respond to apparent conflicts.
  • Restriction to a filesystem tree in the user's home directory forces things not properly user-local into that tree.
You'll note these are mainly to make things user-friendly when they work, which, as usual, translates into user-atagonistic when something fails. When you permit unlimited third-party software, it's impossible (OK, even more impossible than normal) to avoid something occasionally failing; it's to be hoped that Nokia will reduce these issues so it can fail more gracefully, but I think the situation is somewhat understandable for the first few iterations.

Or, alternatively, Nokia could simply make a .deb available that gives users options for removing these things (at LEAST their menu icons). Say, as Benson suggested, a kind of Tweak tool... so that you never have to have Rhapsody's poisonous crap loaded onto your tablet at all. :P heh

Yeah. The point is that SSU will work fine for the typical consumer, which is where this sort of thing is targetted.

I apologize if this has been touched on -- I ran a search and came up with nothing related to the new update.

Tried to install the update, but it's telling me that it can't because libcurl3 is missing. I went looking for it in red pill mode, but don't see it. Help please?

Oh yes, and I do report bugs. Routinely.
And this one will make a really big one :D
And, as I already hinted, there is a big problem with dpkg and uninstall scripts. The install/uninstall success depends on the script being able to shut down a daemon, which may already be shut down by the user, or a link in rc2.d, which depends again in the user wanting to run or not a service.
That's not robust.

I think there are some QA issues, unfortunately.
It is not that the individual patches are bad quality, on contrary, they are incremental and very good in general. The problem is the huge ms-style update package. By being such, is much more difficult to deal with the single issues, and stacks one failure over another, and so the end result is a bricked tablet. If this updated would have been divided in 5 or more updates, lets say for example, kernel+initfs, browser, desktop, apt, ..., if an update fails it won't bring down the entire system, at least so easily.
For example, having removed the manual doc files in the user home directory to mmc, and replaced the doc directory with a symlink to the actual directory in mmc, will make the whole update fail in the middle; since apt has also been updated and still hasn't been configured, all tableteer repos are lost, and so apt-get won't be able to find the files it needs to finish the installation, and so the system can't finish it configuration. Device bricked upon reboot.

I seem in the minority here, but I updated two OS partitions without issue. I had done every single dangerous thing that could prevent updating, as listed by Jaffa, and still no problems whatsoever.

I also reinstalled my Bootmenu with the lasted version posted in this thread; A+ as always, Fanoush! ;)

For the future, there's probably some things that multi-booters should change for their SD OS's. Some examples are installing sysklogd and uncommenting the following line in /etc/dpkg/dpkg.conf:

Quote:
#log /var/log/dpkg.log
Stuff like that.

Who knows, maybe there would be some good info in those logs.

I don't know if I should ask here, but after the update I can no longer get adblock to work.

I disabled the component in the browser then restarted and adblock disappeared from the installed components list. So I used the app manager and uninstalled adblock and reinstalled and also rebooted. Still not working but does show up in the installed components list and is listed as enabled. Any hints?

Re: Seamless Software Upgrade v4.2008.36-5 is out!
 
For those of you now booting successfully from updated SD: did you install ssu from flash, and then again from SD (after installing bootmenu)? Did you encounter any snags along the way?

I have updated flash, and am now booting from SD, but SD is not yet updated and app manager only shows me update when looking at installable apps in red pill. There it gives me four options (two "unlocked") but none install.

Guidance appreciated.

Re: Seamless Software Upgrade v4.2008.36-5 is out!
 
I've only updated SD; IIRC, my flash (was an old Diablo, before the first SSU) isn't even bootable at the moment, but I run from several SD boot images, so it didn't bother me...

I then rebooted into flash, with the same result: updated, but it didn't ask me to reboot. Rebooting again, into SD, shows the old version number: 4.2008.30-2. Any ideas?

I think I'm in the same boat..... app manager and apt-get upgrade no longer show any upgrades, but the version number is still 4.2008.30-2 correct?

I waited a few minutes for something to happen (error dialog, popup asking to reboot, etc.) but nothing did.

I didn't bother trying to update those other apps yet but I did try to reconnect the wifi but no AP selection window would pop up.

I tried the power button to reboot. No popup there either which is strange since that seems to work no matter how hooped your desktop might be.
I had the same problems.

It would be better to have some kind of failsafe or single-user mode like on standard Linux machines, so that the user can try to fix things without needing a reflash.

I installed to mmc2 first (to see if I could install it just there and still boot into it, which you can't), then I installed it to Flash, then reinstalled Bootmenu, and viola! It works.

Re: Seamless Software Upgrade v4.2008.36-5 is out!
 
Just documenting my progress here for those in a similar situation. I rebooted into flash and fscked the SD card partition, and just hit y to all the prompts. Rebooted into SD, and tried apt-get -f install again. It gave me the pre-installed error again, so I ran my two lines from above, and it gave me one of the file errors. I removed the directory that file was in, ran the two commands above, and ran apt-get -f install AGAIN, and it went off without an error. Checking in About Product still shows the old version number, rebooted and I have the new version number! So, I think I'm all set now...

I disabled the component in the browser then restarted and adblock disappeared from the installed components list. So I used the app manager and uninstalled adblock and reinstalled and also rebooted. Still not working but does show up in the installed components list and is listed as enabled. Any hints?
This isn't the hint you're looking for, but try Privoxy instead. I find it much more lightweight.
