Description David Jones 2014-07-15 22:04:14 UTC
Description of problem:
Hardware: cubietruck
Arm extlinux.conf is not being correctly updated after applying kernel update.
Boots to second kernel listed.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
3.16.0-0.rc4.git1.1.fc21.armv7hl
3.16.0-0.rc4.git2.1.fc22.armv7hl
3.16.0-0.rc4.git3.1.fc22.armv7hl

How reproducible:
On each kernel update the version for the 
fdtdir /dtb-3.16.0-0.rc4.git2.1.fc21.armv7hl/ remains as the previous version number.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create an sdcard with old version
2.Run yum update
3.

Actual results:

Additional info:
Separate issues:- 
network does not start if /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 is missing. I need to retest this with latest image.
MAC address changes after update, again need further testing.
