This is because the kernel (which was taken from Angstrom release) does not have all the configuration options Fedora needs. Stuff like ACLs, xattrs, or whatever else.... stuff that relates to filesystem capabilities. It's probably best to update the Beaglebone black remix inside a chroot from another system, or not at all. =( We are working on getting the mainline kernel to boot BBB with all the proper fedora configs merged, at which point I'll retire the remix. (it's very poor of me to make available such a fragile remix in the first place) My apologies, -Jon Disnard On Sun, Sep 1, 2013 at 7:47 AM, Steve Underwood <steveu@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hi Jon, > > When I do a yum update on an Beaglebone Black using your Fedora 19 image I > get the following issue: > > error: unpacking of archive failed on file /usr/sbin/mtr: cpio: cap_set_file > > when the mtr RPM updates.
