      Hello

      I just moved to AntiX.
      Everything is working great however I’m not able to upgrade the default 4.10.5 kernel to the meltdown and spectre patched 4.14 or 4.15 kernels.
      They’re not in the package installer. I’m using 64-bit architecture and stable repos.

      Thanks

        I am sure that the package installer can be updated to match the available kernels but you can also get them through synaptic or apt-get.

          Have you done an apt-get upgrade then apt-get dist-upgrade
          to get the latest package installer?

              I did apt-get upgrade & apt-get dist-upgrade and the latest kernel I see in the package installer is antiX kernel 64bit 4.13.4. No 4.14 or 4.15
              Strange because 4.14 is available in MX package installer.

              E: Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with –fix-missing? is what I get after apt-get dist-upgrade

              Any suggestions?

                      I did apt-get dist-upgrade one more time and it seems to be working fine now.

                      Thanks for help
