Public bug reported: While running flash-kernel inside vm instance on armhf I get the following error:
$ flash-kernel Unsupported platform. $ echo $? 1 This happens because dtb is not provided (we don't need it) and /proc/cpuinfo contains the following information: Hardware : Dummy Virtual Machine But we don't have description for this 'Dummy Virtual Machine' inside all.db. This leads to a crash of curtin (ubuntu fast path installer) because it checks the return code. ** Affects: flash-kernel (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Description changed: - While running flash-kernel inside vm instance I get the following error: + While running flash-kernel inside vm instance on armhf I get the + following error: - $ flash-kernel + $ flash-kernel Unsupported platform. $ echo $? 1 This happens because dtb is not provided (we don't need it) and /proc/cpuinfo contains the following information: Hardware : Dummy Virtual Machine But we don't have description for this 'Dummy Virtual Machine' inside all.db.
