Selfupgrade && sreboot (failed, exitcode=100)

I recently tried to upgrade my rig but keep getting this error, I haven’t tried to force just yet. Any ideas?

try rebooting first?

[ulesmx]

Already tried, also tried with --force both from web and shell, exact same error.

[keaton_hiveon]

possible dpkg is corrupted, you can try doing a hive-replace -s and see if youre able to upgrade after.

[ulesmx]

What does that command do? I wouldn’t like to end up with and unstable OS, I already had to use beta version in orden to run my 6700xt gpus

[ulesmx]

according to other linux forums, the hwinfo info files, is corrupted, I’ll have to purge and reinstalling it with apt, I’ll have to wait until i get physical access to the rig, that package has important dependencies

Files list file for package 'package' is missing final newline

[keaton_hiveon]

It will reflash was the latest stable image, leaving your config in tact, should only take around 5-20 minutes depending on internet speed and drive speed. No need to have physical access or try to reinstall apps when reflashing the whole thing is easier.

No need for the beta image either, 6700xts have long been supported by the stable. Alternatively you can use hive-replace —beta if you wanted, but I believe the stable has more updated drivers at this point in time.

[ulesmx]

hive-replace doesn’t work, neither apt purge hwinfo, i think the file system is corrupted, I’ll have to flash a new usb drive. I’ve been using the beta image for almost 6 months, back then the stable version won´t even detect my ASUS 6700XT.

[ulesmx]

So I flashed a new USB and you were right, latest stable image works with mi ASUS 6700XT.

[keaton_hiveon]

Nice. Dpkg working as intended now? Able to upgrade?

[ulesmx]

Yes, it’s a freshly imaged new usb, everything working fine now.
Thank you!
