--- Comment #4 from Lee Berry <[email protected]> ---
User thinks that 'osprober' is picking up old kernel (5.15) from a
decommissioned SSD-drive that has KDE5.26 in /boot.  The PC's hardware
configuration has the old-disk "sdb1" labeled as /boot with boot flag set in
the PC's spare slot.  Removing the hot-swap /sdb drive should solve the
problem. However, that is just a workaround. The grub-update should  pick up
the newest kernel 6.2.X.X. and recognize that the old kernel is not the current
OS.  Removing the boot-flag on /sdb2 is also a temp fix.  This bug is very
similar to an old "timeshift" bug that occurred on Manjaro where osprober was
picking up copies of previous timeshifts. No time shifts are used here. Their
fix was to set a flag to disable osprober in /etc/default/grub to
GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER=true. They admitted that it's not a fix. It's ust a work
around. Many complains on that site about "grub2-mkconfig" not working well and
suggest using an alternate boot loader daemon like "systemd_boot" rather than
GRUB2. These are theory only,and have not been tested as the user wants to keep
the current KDE5.27 same as out of the box original configuration.
