BeagleBone and Device Tree

Interesting article:

As I’m currently working on a project using a BeagleBone Black and fighting cape overlays, it will be nice to see this get cleaned up.

They are now supporting the 5.10 kernel:

It’s then time to upgrade the kernel to the latest version supported by BeagleBoard. To do so, you’ll have to manually update the /opt/scripts/tools/update_kernel.sh file. In this file, go to the # parse commandline options section and add the below lines:

    --lts-5_10-kernel|--lts-5_10)
            kernel="LTS510"
            ;;

You can can then upgrade to the latest 5.10 kernel:

sudo /opt/scripts/tools/update_kernel.sh --ti-channel --lts-5_10

Reboot your board and with the uname -r command, check that you are now running Linux 5.10.
