I just done the computer in my signature and it all went without issues.

Thanks.

The recommended choice for a stable system which one is? I personally installed the 4.9.75.antix2 kernel without any reboot problems, but I wanted to know if in the future to upgrade the kernel just an apt-get dist-upgrade or install the kernel as now?
PS thanks to the developers, a quick and stable distro without systemd! 🙂

Install the kernel as now is what I gather from this thread.

I aint sweating virtual box or dkms as I never use it.

Sheepish 2nd edit

: If you wanna avoid my dkms/virtual box errors. Do a dist-upgrade before the kernel install.
I just dist-upgraded and guess what? Virtual box and dkms was in the dist-upgrade.

just an apt-get dist-upgrade or install the kernel as now?

In another recent topic, someone asked “Does a dist-upgrade operation automatically install the latest kernel?”
Based on my (infrequent dist-upgrade) experience, I replied “No”… and nobody followed up to dispute that answer.

Today, wondering whether “apt dist-upgrade” vs “apt-get dist-upgrade” might produce a different result…
First, I checked the docs. Per the docs, would need to use the commandstring “apt upgrade full”
~~ IOW, per the docs, “apt dist-upgrade” does not exist, should not be recognized.
Second, I tested, and confirmed that “apt dist-upgrade” is, in fact, recognized on my untweaked antiX17 system.
It produces the same result as “apt-get dist-upgrade” (it does not attempt to automatically install newer available kernel)

The default freedom of choice which kernel you use in antix, when and if downgrading to an older or updating to a recent new one,
and not being suddenly unpleasantly surprised with a kernel after a dist-upgrade, like in many other distros,
is something I really dont want to miss in antix.

caprea, I agree and am entirely content with the status quo.
I checked all the /etc/apt conf+preferences files and, except for autoremove rules, didn’t find anything mentioning kernel package handling.
The “like in many other distros” behavior… I don’t know what mechanism those other distros employ to achieve “auto” kernel upgrade.

edit:
sudo apt-conf dump
shows all the settings key:values but I still didn’t find anything mentioning linux* (or *kernel*) package hold-vs-autoupgrade

Other distros do it by keeping the exact same deb file name.

If we were upgrading the existing 4.10.5 kernel to a bugfix 4.10.5, it would make sense to have this auto-install with a dist-upgrade.
However, the kernels now offered are different and it is up to the user to decide.

Next point release of antiX-17.1 will ship with 4.9.xx

Philosophers have interpreted the world in many ways; the point is to change it.

antiX with runit - leaner and meaner.

Maybe then it is better to install the default kernel (now 4.9.75) in order to automatically have automatic patches in the future …

Hi guys,
regarding to this statement “Unfortunately, I have not been able to patch the 4.10-5 kernel (antiX-17 default) or the 4.4 version (antiX-16 series). “, I would much appreciate a “how to” document listed here on antix website on how to upgrade the kernel manually for antix 17 default and antix 16.

Thank you and best regards,
Fonsis

On antiX-17, use cli-aptiX and choose from the list of antiX or Debian kernels

Or apt-get install linux-headers-4.9.75-antix.2-amd64-smp linux-image-4.9.75-antix.2-amd64-smp

For antiX-16, you will have to wait or instead the Debian 3.16 kernel

How do I make 4.9.75 my default kernel at boot?
I don’t see any menu.lst and control center lists a lot of options but where to add the new kernel for boot?

I CAN choose 4.9.75 at boot manually – and it works.
This is the good news.
But I would like to have 4.9.75 as default kernel. 🙂

Right now. I am plodding along on my IBM T23. Finally got 17 installed. Posting this post on my better Dell Laptop. Because of non sse2 cpu on my T23 and I can’t seem to log in yet on this forum with it with Dillo or Netsurf yet. Firefox and SeaMonkey are useless on it. Keeps crashing at 100% cpu. Anyhows.

When done with my Kernel install on the T23. I will reboot and boot into 4.9.75 and open synaptic and un-install kernel 4.10. Let it update grub. Done. Now 4.9 is at the top of the list. I see no reason to keep a 4.10 kernel and header I won’t boot into.

Working with this IBM T23 laptop in todays world is like watching paint dry. Here is hoping qupzilla bails me out on that laptop and logging into this forum. WordPress uses java and cookies. I have cookies enabled in Dillo. But WordPress don’t seem to care . Oh well. Back to the grind stone.
