But for those who haven't.. and those using the non-generic variant, it would be good to use the right version..
apt-get install --reinstall mp-fremantle-generic-pr on a non-generic variant won't be healthy..

"apt-get install --reinstall mp-fremantle-generic-pr on a non-generic variant won't be healthy."
But.apt-get install --reinstall mp-fremantle-*
would work for generic and non-generic, it seems.

You need a space between "install" and "--reinstall" in the command "apt-get install --reinstall mp-fremantle-002-pr". What you did was "apt-get install--reinstall mp-fremantle-002-pr".
Try again & good luck.
