Package: flash-kernel
Version: 3.13
Severity: important
Tags: patch
For the Seagate Dockstar there is a case inconsistency between the entry in all.db and (at least) linux-image-3.12-1-kirkwood's /usr/lib/linux-image-3.12-1-kirkwood/kirkwood-dockstar.dtb. This inconsistency causes flash-kernel to return "Unsupported platform." and interrupt kernel upgrades.
Specifically, when booted via a FDT kernel using the linux-image-3.12-1-kirkwood kirkwood-dockstar.dtb, the value of /proc/device-tree/model is "Seagate FreeAgent Dockstar" and the relevant entry in all.db is "Machine: Seagate FreeAgent DockStar". Note the capitalized S in "DockStar" in all.db and the lower-case S in "Dockstar" in the kernel's dtb.
A patch which allowed my upgrade to succeed is:
