Attended sysupgrade from 23.05 to 24.10 not doing anything

Installing and Using OpenWrt

I wanted to update my Router which is currently running 23.05.6 to 24.10.5 via attended sysupgrade. I can search for the firmware upgrade, it shows me 24.10.5, I click request Firmware Image, it downloads the image, afterwards I click keep config and start flash, it starts flashing the firmware, the router page refreshes and I’m still with 23.05.6 as if nothing happend. No error Message or anything…

My Crystal Ball sees a Banana Pi BPI-R3 in @Penecho past, although it may not even be the device in question.

Try owut from cli instead, see if it'll tell you more.

You haven't by any chance extended rootfs ?

I tried to install owut this morning (via ssh and ogkg update and then opkg install owut), sadly without success. I am always getting the message that it is unknown.

Yeah, it's probably not on 23.05.

Try the cli version of auc, as described in Owut: OpenWrt Upgrade Tool and https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/installation/attended.sysupgrade#from_the_cli.

You didn't answer the question.

Make sure the fitblk package is installed. The sysupgrade done at the end of any ASU upgrade will silently fail if it is missing.
