Kernel Upgrade

Hey guys quick question, is it feasible to update the kernel of the bashbunny? (even if it voids the warranty, that's fine).

I have a couple of ideas that I would like to try but they would require me to run docker which has a minimum kernel requirement of 3.10 (it's for a university project). If anyone is able to give any quick guidance/pointers that would be awesome!

I have already found a couple of resources on this, namely:

https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/DIY_Fully_working_Alpine_Linux_for_Allwinner_and_Other_ARM_SOCs

https://watchmysys.com/blog/2016/12/allwinner-h3-h2-linux-49-ethernet/

https://blog.christophersmart.com/2016/10/23/building-and-booting-upstream-linux-and-u-boot-for-orange-pi-one-arm-board/

However I could not find any reference for kernels targeting the Cherry Pi board (most of the docs are blank at http://linux-sunxi.org/Cherry_Pi). I have attempted to follow http://linux-sunxi.org/Mainline_Kernel_Howto but I am unsure if I could simply use another of those H3 device tree blobs for the cherry pi.

 

Thanks in advanced!

 

Alex.

Are you talking about Docker in terms of sandboxing? If so, you could use another program that doesn't require a kernel upgrade.

Also, the BB isn't built for sandboxing (or virtualisation), so it may not work very well. Might be worth considering just using a RPi with Docker and the Linux gadget tools.
