how to upgrade to the newest linux kernel with command line


Recommended Posts

dear community,

how to upgrade to the newest kernel via termial

 

i am on opensuse:  i run leap 42.2 and i want to test the newest kernel. At the moment i have kernel 4.4.27


note: i just have installed leap42.2 and i have a serious bug - the system does not power off - after switching off-


the only system that it works till now - is the openssuse 13.2 ;(

now i want to try out the newest kernel

hello dear phpfreaks-team,  hello dear commmunity,


does this following approach work:  i open the terminal (Konsole) and issue these commands:
 


 zypper dup -r kernelzypper refzypper ar -f http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/Kernel:/stable/standard/ kernel su -



and then - afterwards -i mean after the  installation is complete, reboot your system. You cam then check the current kernel version using this command:
 


 uname -a

 



i try out this procedure - and come back and report all the findings...
