please what did I lost reading this topic and other?

It seems to me that some basic information aren't explained, and I can't find them anywhere. This should mean that they are logical things, but I don't understand them anyway.


Where is the correct place to run the commands described here?

I downloaded the two bz2 files, the rootfs and the boot update.

1) so for the rootfs I had troubles but I finally expanded it into the rootfs et4 partition of my USB key

2) the linux-4.2*bodhi.ter.bz2 : I beleaved (because nowhere is written) I had to unrar into the ext2 partition of the USB key, but because it is an update most probably the /boot directory that you wote is the /boot directory of the rootfs onto the USB key (or may be of mine debian system?).

Anyway, after having extracted the tar into the /boot directory of the rootfs of the USBkey I had to send the commands for the installation of deb files...

If I try dpkg from my system then I receive the error of a different architecture, so it is impossible to go ahead.
I tryed olso to force the dpkg command to bypass the architecture trouble, and the installation workrd but the packages where installed on my Debian system and not into the usbkey

If I try to exexute those command from my NSA325, login as root, then dpkg command doesn't work on it because it isn't installed in the system.

So please what I lack reading this and others related topics?
What is so obviously and basical so it isn't important to mention it into the topic that I don't understand?

In the meanwhyle I'll check the 40 pages looking for any help.
Thanks in advance
