OMV 5 - can’t update Kernel

  • Hello everyone,


    I tried to update the kernel from my Rpi4. First I tried it with „rpi-update“ with putty but no luck.

    Then I tried it with OMV Webif over the update tab. And I received the following error and it keeps repeating all over.

    I need to update the kernel because I won’t to install pihole with docker and Portainer.


    It would be very nice if someone could help me.


    Here my specs:

    OMV 5.3.2-1

    Rpi4

    Kernel Linux 4.19.97-v7l+

    Did you try running the command it tells you to run? apt-get -f install


    need to update the kernel because I won’t to install pihole with docker and Portainer.

    You don't need a newer kernel to install those. You do need to fix the apt errors with the command above to install docker though.

    I installed pihole with this video:

    My suggestion does the same thing.

    nd i have the same problem at the an as the guy in the video,

    I don't have time to watch the video but I will have to try rpi-update. Not sure why that part is necessary.

    Okay I tried your command "apt-get -f install" and it worked, I could install all the updates from OMV. After that I tried pihole via portioner but no luck. Then I did the kernel update with rpi-update and pihole worked.


    Thank you for your help!

    I have install pi-hole in a container on an RPi quite a few times and I never updated the kernel with rpi-update. Not sure why the update "fixed" it.
