Upgrading Linux

Wednesday, November 22, 2023 at 3:24 PM

Upgrading the Linux kernel always leaves the previous version installed.

What I just learned today is that the version the computer is currently running is left installed too.

18 days ago, I had versions 87 and 88 installed and booted with version 87.

Today, I upgraded to version 89, but version 87 was left installed.

Now my server says "reboot required" but I am too scared to do that. I will wait until I have time to build the new server.
