Upgrading OS with very old kernel
Hey all,
I'm trying to update a very old embedded Linux build (Angstrom 2012 with kernel 3.8.13) with a newer kernel build, as it has some important fixes for me in built-in I2C driver.
The /boot/ directory has a zImage-3.8.13 file and a zImage symlink to it.
How hard will it be to update the Kernel? So far I've tried dropping in a 4.x kernel zImage from the latest Angstrom build, but it boots to a black screen with no logs.
