Upgrade fail cant find archive linux-image-4.9.0-9-686-pae

#1 Post by ericoberg1 »

Hi All,

Running 9.9 stretch on an Atom computer. Install was easy, been working fine for months. I run sudo apt-get update and everything runs no problem. Go to run upgrade and get this:

atom@Atom:~$ sudo apt-get upgrade
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: The package linux-image-4.9.0-9-686-pae needs to be reinstalled, but I can't find an archive for it.
atom@Atom:~$

I know that from the update, I am connecting to all the right places (text at the bottom). What am I doing wrong?

Thank you,
ericoberg1

How do your links to repositories (e.g. file /etc/apt/sources.list or files in /etc/apt/sources.list.d) look?
BTW, you can find available images of your installed type by e.g.:

Code: Select all

apt-cache search 'linux-image-.*-686-pae'

Hi ruwolf,

Thank you for responding.

The sources.list is this:

atom@Atom:/etc/apt$ more sources.list
#
# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 9.9.0 _Stretch_ - Official i386 DVD Binary-1 20190427-11:18]/ stretch contrib main
# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 9.9.0 _Stretch_ - Official i386 DVD Binary-1 20190427-11:18]/ stretch contrib main

deb http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ stretch-updates main contrib non-free
deb-src http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/ stretch-updates main contrib non-free
atom@Atom:/etc/apt$

There is nothing in /etc/apt/sources.list.d

The apt-cache search gives this:

Seems to be here, : https://packages.debian.org/stretch/linux-image-686-pae
The package linux-image-4.9.0-9-686-pae needs to be reinstalled,
Maybe the existing/old one needs to be purged/removed in order to re-install it. ? I am not sure on that.
Are you sure those repositories are correct ? In your sources.list file,...please use code boxes for that kind of thing, but to me it does not look like what is shown here:
https://wiki.debian.org/LTS/Using
Important: Debian 9 stretch LTS only supports i386, amd64, arm64, armel and armhf. Users of other architectures are encouraged to upgrade to Debian 10 buster.

The current LTS version is Debian 9 stretch and will be supported from 2020-07-06 to 2022-06-30. To receive security updates, your /etc/apt/sources.list should look like this one:

Code: Select all

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ stretch main contrib non-free
deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian/ stretch main contrib non-free

deb http://security.debian.org/ stretch/updates main contrib non-free
deb-src http://security.debian.org/ stretch/updates main contrib non-free

You should update to 4.9.0-13 (or the latest version in the future) for the security fixes, y'know.

Is the kernel metapackage installed and up to date?

Code: Select all

Hmmmm, if only apt would give a clue, some indication of what the problem might be, if only there was something to go on, a message of some sort. Apt, speak to us, tell us something, anything we might then feed into a search engine ... apt? What's wrong? Apt? Apttttt?!??!

Couldn't resist any longer and it's too funny of an opp to pass up. :P

OK, the reason that's not in the repo any longer is that it's been replaced by a newer kernel with security fixes. Follow the suggestions to install the kernel metapackage from HOAS, upgrade thine olde and busted kernel, and mark this thread [SOLVED].

Hi Steve,

That is good info, searched high and low for the 4.9.0.9 version. I use this computer just a few hours a week on a mesh network, not connected to the "Internet". I will have to decide how long I want to stall before I upgrade to the new kernel.

deb-fan, useless.
