Releasing version 1.0.7-RC of the Raspbian unattended netinstaller.
This release fixes the following issues:
- Fixed most of kernel crashes/rainbow screens that happened with the rpi15 kernel. This fixes issue 199 and issue 201.
- Increased the size of /boot/ to 128MB by default. This fixes issue 190.
- Added a workaround for too old firmware files in the official archive which prevented the installer to boot on a Pi 1B/1B+.
This release also adds the following new functionality:
- Support for Device Tree.
See the README for features/installation instruction/etc for this release.
NOTE:
The installed system sometimes fails to boot. The exact cause for this is not (yet) known.
With the following workaround in post-install.txt I have not gotten a crash again, but usually it's not needed (and it shouldn't).
# update the firmware files, which reduces kernel crashes
FIRMWARE_ARCHIVE=raspberrypi-firmware-20150420.zip
if [ -f /bootfs/config/${FIRMWARE_ARCHIVE} ] ; then
echo -n "Updating firmware files with snapshot from git..."
unzip -qo /bootfs/config/${FIRMWARE_ARCHIVE} -d /rootfs/boot/
if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
echo "OK"
else
echo "FAILED !"

# also disable device tree to further reduce kernel crashes
