Path to generic x86-64 kernel headers

Product support balenaOS

Hello. I need to build the kernel modules for NVidia GPUs for Generic x86_64 and I need the kernel headers to get started.

I found through this forum that for intel-nuc we can find them at https://files.resin.io/images/intel-nuc/${RESINOS_VERSION}/kernel_modules_headers.tar.gz for example, but I cannot figure out the right path for generic x86_64.

Also, is there a place where one can find the valid paths and how they are encoded to find the right URL in files.resin.io?

Thanks!
Carlos

ok I found it myself in the end. I used balena devices list to find out the exact name for the generic x86-64 device, so here it goes, for example: https://files.balena-cloud.com/images/genericx86-64-ext/2.58.6%2Brev1.prod/kernel_modules_headers.tar.gz

Note that since balenaOS 2.95 there is no difference between a production image and development image (this difference has moved to config.json), so the URL has changed too. It is now:

https://files.balena-cloud.com/images/genericx86-64-ext/2.95.12%2Brev1/kernel_modules_headers.tar.gz

That is correct, thanks for pointing this out!
