Copy The Code Below Like This

       

What the above code does.

  • Ensures GRUB is using the latest OEM D kernel at every boot.
  • Creates a desktop file as an autostart to check for OEM kernel status.
  • If an update comes about for the OEM kernel, is installed, but GRUB still has the older version - an alert box will provide you with a link to get this corrected.

       

What does the OEM Kernel alert looks like:

   

Note: This will appear if the code below is pasted into the terminal, enter key pressed and system rebooted. When a new version of the OEM kernel is ready, this will alert you at bootup - if you're on the current OEM D kernel AND you have followed my above directions, then and only then you will not be alerted.

What does the OEM Kernel alert looks like

       

For Advanced users ONLY:

If you are someone who is not super comforable with the command line, please use the steps above instead. Additionally, if a new OEM kernel is released, you will be NOT be alerted if you use the advanced method as nothing is checking for updates to alert you.

If you would rather enter the commands individually instead of using the code block provided previously:

Step 1 (ADVANCED USERS) Updating packages.

sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y

Step 2 (ADVANCED USERS) Install the recommended OEM kernel.

sudo apt install linux-oem-22.04c

Reboot

Step 3 (ADVANCED USERS) Indentify your OEM D kernel.

ls /boot/vmlinuz-* | awk -F"-" '{split($0, a, "-"); version=a[3]; if (version>max) {max=version; kernel=a[2] "-" a[3] "-" a[4]}} END{print kernel}'

Right now, this is 6.5.0.1013-oem - but this may evolve in the future.

Step 4 (ADVANCED USERS) Change the following.

GRUB_DEFAULT="0"

into

GRUB_DEFAULT="Advanced options for Ubuntu>Ubuntu, with Linux 6.5.0.1013-oem"

Step 5 (ADVANCED USERS) Then run.

sudo update-grub

Reboot
