this directory has been moved and the files are now at

If you have the Vagrant install you will need to change the suggested
test at tests/bbb_debian_ramdisk_test.yaml to reflect the new location
and edit the BBB health check if you have already installed that.

https://wiki.linuxfoundation.org/civilinfrastructureplatform/ciptestingboardatdesksingledevsetup#configure-the-lava-health-check-jobs-for-both-devices

bbb_debian_local.yaml makes one reference to the linaro location which
will also need changing if you use that file in association with
lava-tool.

The issue https://gitlab.com/cip-project/cip-testing/testing/issues/103
has been created to track this issue.

We intend to update the git repository and release a new provisioned box
later this week to resolve this issue.
Having thought more about this issue we would like to put forward the
following suggestion. Note that the URLs in the following are not
working they are only there as placeholders! Comments on the proposed
solution are welcome!

* Proposed solution to the issues with the Beaglebone health check

In the short term we propose that we create a tar archive of a new
version of the tests directory which we upload to the downloads area.

The differences between that archive and the one in the provisioned box
are at the end of this message. We will though upload the actual files
rather than the differences (though we could provide just the diff and explain
how to apply them?)

*** Important ***
These changes need applying whether the user is using b@d from git or the pre-provisioned box.

The Known issue section on this will include the following workaround:
------------------------------------------------------------------
The installation procedure is as follows:

On the VM
wget https://s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/download.cip-project.org/ciptesting/b%40d/b%40d_v0_9_1/box/tests-0.9.1.tgz.notworking
wget https://s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/download.cip-project.org/ciptesting/b%40d/b%40d_v0_9_1/box/tests-0.9.1.sha256sum.notworking
wget https://s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/download.cip-project.org/ciptesting/b%40d/b%40d_v0_9_1/box/tests-0.9.1.tgz.sig.notworking

* A standard section on using SHA256sum and GPG to check integrity and signature of
these tests will be included.

Then:

cd /vagrant
sudo tar txf $DOWNLOADDIR/tests-0.9.1.tgz

If you have already created a Beaglebone black health check then you
need to replace it with the new /vagrant/tests/bbb_debian_ramdisk_test.yaml

In the longer term there will be a 0.9.2 release of b@d which will
include a local version of initramfs and versions of the BBB kernel to
provide an initial health check.
