Install The Latest Linux Kernel in Ubuntu Easily via A Script
|
||
================================================================================
|
||
|
||
|
||
Want to install the latest Linux Kernel? A simple script can always do the job and make things easier in Ubuntu.
|
||
|
||
Michael Murphy has created a script makes installing the latest RC, stable, or lowlatency Kernel easier in Ubuntu. The script asks some questions and automatically downloads and installs the latest Kernel packages from [Ubuntu kernel mainline page][1].
|
||
|
||
### Install / Upgrade Linux Kernel via the Script: ###
|
||
|
||
1. Download the script from the right sidebar of the [github page][2] (click the “Download Zip” button).
|
||
|
||
2. Decompress the Zip archive by right-clicking on it in your user Downloads folder and select “Extract Here”.
|
||
|
||
3. Navigate to the result folder in terminal by right-clicking on that folder and select “Open in Terminal”:
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
It opens a terminal window and automatically navigates into the result folder. If you **DON’T** find the “Open in Terminal” option, search for and install `nautilus-open-terminal` in Ubuntu Software Center and then log out and back in (or run `nautilus -q` command in terminal instead to apply changes).
|
||
|
||
4. When you’re in terminal, give the script executable permission for once.
|
||
|
||
chmod +x *
|
||
|
||
FINALLY run the script every time you want to install / upgrade Linux Kernel in Ubuntu:
|
||
|
||
./*
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
I use * instead of the SCRIPT NAME in both commands since it’s the only file in that folder.
|
||
|
||
If the script runs successfully, restart your computer when done.
|
||
|
||
### Revert back and Uninstall the new Kernel: ###
|
||
|
||
To revert back and remove the new kernel for any reason, restart your computer and select boot with the old kernel entry under **Advanced Options** menu when you’re at Grub boot-loader.
|
||
|
||
When it boots up, see below section.
|
||
|
||
### How to Remove the old (or new) Kernels: ###
|
||
|
||
1. Install Synaptic Package Manager from Ubuntu Software Center.
|
||
|
||
2. Launch Synaptic Package Manager and do:
|
||
|
||
- click the **Reload** button in case you want to remove the new kernel.
|
||
- select **Status -> Installed** on the left pane to make search list clear.
|
||
- search **linux-image**- using Quick filter box.
|
||
- select a kernel image “linux-image-x.xx.xx-generic” and mark for (complete) removal
|
||
- finally apply changes
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
Repeat until you removed all unwanted kernels. DON’T carelessly remove the current running kernel, check it out via `uname -r` (see below pic.) command.
|
||
|
||
For Ubuntu Server, you may run below commands one by one:
|
||
|
||
uname -r
|
||
|
||
dpkg -l | grep linux-image-
|
||
|
||
sudo apt-get autoremove KERNEL_IMAGE_NAME
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
