Introduction[edit | edit source]
This page describes how to perform the NELK update procedure, starting from an existing DVDK installation and updating only the SDK (tools, sources and root file system) without creating a full new DVDK virtual machine.
 We assume that the DVDK provided with a previous kit version is already installed on the system |
Installation Steps[edit | edit source]
|
The update package consists in a compressed archive (nelk-x.y.x.tar.bz2). It can be downloaded from DAVE website or it can be found on the NELK distribution (SD card or USB pen drive) |
- Start the DVDK virtual machine
- Take a snapshot of the current VM state. This creates a sort of "backup" which can be used to restore the previous installation
- Fetch the nelk-x.y.x.tar.bz2 file. You have the following options:
- download it from inside the virtual machine (with a browser or file downloader);
- share the file from a shared folder on the host machine using the "Shared Folder" feature (you need to have the Virtual Guest extension installed, see VirtualBox Shared folders);
- share the file from a shared folder on the local network (you need to have a working network configuration, see VirtualBox Network Configuration
