Told you I was not skilled at scripts. I did not get this from what few
comments were in the beginning of the script.
I now understand better. But...
Why the --refresh in your dnf update example below?
I did a little digging in /boot to see if there is any information on
what uboot SOC is installed. Did not find one. It would be great if
the default for this command could determine the proper uboot and
device. Also perhaps the tag option could be tagged as optional? Or
some more test about what it means and why most of us will not use it?
thanks
