I am running chroot on a chromebook and when I run DKMS I get an error message that it can't find the linux header. When I try to install that header it can't find it.

linux-headers*, linux-image*
are updated quite often. Your "uname -r" may not exist any more. So please check iflinux-image*
requires an upgrade.

Check what's installed :uname -r
... and what's available :apt-cache search linux-image

The headers don't change with an update. The important thing is the exact version match kernel-image / kernel-headers.
