    Vasanth - 2023-01-17

    Hi,
    I am using Bananapi M2 Zero hardware and the OS installed is "Armbian_20.11.10_Bananapim2zero_buster_current_5.10.4_desktop.img" from this website https://armbian.tnahosting.net/archive/bananapim2zero/archive/. When I run the command "sudo apt-get install linux-tools-generic" to install the dependencies in USBIP as instructed in this website https://developer.ridgerun.com/wiki/index.php/How_to_setup_and_use_USB/IP in terminal it throws the error "E: unable to locate package linux-tools-generic". I have been stuck in this issue for a long time. Still didn't find any solution. If anyone know how to crack this, appreciate your help :)

    kernel version is: 5.10.4 - sunxi

    Thanks in Advance.

    try that:

    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get upgrade -y
    sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
    sudo apt-get update
    sudo apt-get install linux-tools-generic -y

    Thank you @wruta .

    I tried that, again the same error "unable to locate package linux-tools-generic".

    I am not using any other solution than USB over IP solution. I didn't even know about USB on thin client.
