current kernel [solved]

[colin]

hello to all,

I'm confused ...

just installed voidlinux two times - one on bare metal, one on VBox, both the same iso
took the original xfce-version from the homepage voidlinux.org

on hard disk there is kernel 6.3 and no possibility to change it - did try update, and installing the 6.6 = no succes, even deleting (vkpurge) 6.3 failes
on VBox there is kernel 6.6

don't understand that....

[incident]

I'm confused ...

"Have you tried to turn it off and on again?"

Joking aside .... have you tried to run update-grub manually after upgrade? Or were you unable to install the 6.6 kernel at all?

NO JOKE

grub is not installed

NO JOKE

grub is not installed

How do you boot the kernel?

Could you install the 6.6 kernel without problems?
- If yes, how do you boot it?
- If no, what does xbps say? Errormessage(s)?

How do you boot the kernel?

booting by gummiboot...

but you gave an excellent hint
something is going wrong in the loader

[colin]

it really was an issue on the bootloader
refreshing the entries brought success
now running as should be

I'm glad to read that. ^^

yes - gummiboot is not as easy as grub
but I don't like that grand unified thing
