@Is: Yes. I did both, reinstalled grub and then "mkconfig'd" it and on cold boot, selecting Lubuntu now brings verbose log in/dmesg, or it shows up . . . in the fairly slow boot process . . . but got there!! And uname -r shows 5.19xxx kernel . . . !!!!!!!!
It takes a village . . . in my case. I guess the thing was, after erasing the 5.13 kernel I edited the individual grub item data, but didn't run another "grub2-mkconfig" to solidify the edits?? Or, in this case, find the newer kernel and register it, etc. I started a new thread on Discourse, but since I'm now running Lubuntu I can't post an update there . . . ????? : - 0 On Wed, Sep 21, 2022 at 10:00 AM Fritz Hudnut <este.el....@gmail.com> wrote: > Is: > > Thanks for the reply . . .
