Long time since I've been tinkering with Pogo boxes, but I'm working through the steps to upgrade the the latest kernel on my pogoplug v4 (mobile). I want to update the kernel so that I can boot my SD card from the SD card slot. I'm currently booting from a USB > SD card adapter.
I've downloaded the tarball from dropbox, confirmed the hash.
I have created a backup of my current boot directory.
I am stuck at not understanding if I should clear anything out of the /boot directory before I extract the tarball. I assume it should be downloaded to, and extracted within /boot, but that will leave all of the old 6.5.7 files in /boot if I don't manually remove them (which was not mentioned in the steps).
It feels like a real noob questions to ask, but should I leave the old 6.5.7 files behind, remove them in advance, or remove them after I complete the steps in the guide?
Thanks for any clarification for my foggy brain!
