Oh, one more thing, and that's not specific to this image, but to many Linaro images I tried.

The ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports Apt source is on both sources.list and sources.list.d, yielding an error of duplicated entries.

I just removed the sources.list (since it was the only entry) and all went well.

cheers,

I haven't seen that before but it should be easy to reproduce.

btw, we don't ship images with preEnv.txt but boot.txt/scr instead.
When the kernel is updated, flash-kernel is called and should update the UUID.
The rootfs is mounted by default using UUID but you can mount by
label: root=LABEL=rootfs

It seems something wrong is happening with flash-kernel...
