If you like interactive programs more then you can use aptitude to install packages from terminal. Just do 'sudo aptitude'. In case you just want a simple command use command 'sudo apt-get install linux-image-generic'. linux-image-generic is a meta packages which always depends on latest kernel for the ubuntu version you are using and other related packages like restricted modules. Hope this helps. Onkar -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in

Does anybody know how I can update to the latest version?? 1) You want the latest version available in ubuntu's official repositories? 2) Or the latest stable release from kernel.org? 3) Or the cutting edge git checkout? For 1, you will need to run upgrades. In case you want a kernel from a higher release without upgrading full distro, i.e. if you're using hardy but want the kernel bundled with intrepid, you need to look at apt-pinning[1]. For 2, you can download the kernel from kernel.org[2], configure it using make menuconfig or make xconfig. Then you can use package management tools to package it as a deb, but this will be a lengthy process as you will have to compile the packages. Also, for newbies it takes quite a few trial and errors to get a working config. You could search for custom kernel compilation with ubuntu. Couple of useful links I could find are on howtoforge[3] and ubuntuforums[4]. For 3, you will need to install git[5] from ubuntu repositories[6] and checkout the latest kernel source then compile it using the method shown in reference 3. You can also view git users documentation on kernel.org[7]. All this said and done, what is your primary reason for wanting to upgrade to a newer kernel, once the reason is stated people would get a clearer idea and give better suggestions.

I asked for the reason, that if you had some good reason then people could have guided you better. Since you want to just play around with it, you can try either or all of those methods. Just keep your current kernel intact, it's risk free. Just install a new kernel and add it's entry in grub. If it doesn't work then select the entry for the working kernel. -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in
Re: [ubuntu-in] How do I update the kernel using the terminal?
OK then. I guess I'll try compiling the latest version from kernel.org. Thanks guys.
