Hi Scott,
the howto is mixed for Desktop users, Server users and selective upgrades.
For your case you only need the most simple case which would be:


Essentially you want to:

# Check - all other updates done (to clear the view)
$ apt list --upgradable
Listing... Done

# Enable proposed for z on Server
$ echo "deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ xenial-proposed main 
restricted universe multiverse" | sudo tee 
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/enable-proposed.list
$ sudo apt update
$ apt list --upgradable
[...]
linux-headers-generic/xenial-proposed 4.4.0.100.105 s390x [upgradable from: 
4.4.0.98.103]
linux-headers-virtual/xenial-proposed 4.4.0.100.105 s390x [upgradable from: 
4.4.0.98.103]
linux-image-virtual/xenial-proposed 4.4.0.100.105 s390x [upgradable from: 
4.4.0.98.103]

# Install just the kernels from proposed
$ sudo apt install linux-generic

No need to set apt prefs if you only do a selective install.
If you'd do a global "sudo apt upgrade" you'd get all, but that is likely not 
what you want in your case. After you have done so you can just enable/disable 
the line in /etc/apt/sources.list.d/enable-proposed.list as needed.

Hope that helps
