Bodhi Linux 7.0 Standard to HWE [SOLVED] Oct 18, 2023 17:03:18 GMT

Hi all,

I installed the Standard ISO on an old Asus Chromebox with 4GB ram and 16GB SSD and it's running awesome! I'm using this mainly as an HTPC for streaming and web browsing.

I'd like to upgrade to the HWE version and I understand I can do this via the apt-update method. Will this give me the option to boot to either the standard 5.15 kernel and 6.2 kernel? Or will this only boot up the 6.2 kernel? Is there a way to delete the 5.15 kernel after the upgrade? As the SSD is only 16GB I need to keep the storage as lean as possible.

BTW, I tried to install the mintupdate app but it's not found in the repositories for Bodhi 7.0. Mintupdate has a feature to show and remove old kernels.

Thanks!

It will give you the option to boot the old kernel. It is possible to remove the old kernel.

I'm hoping we get an official bodhi build of mintupdate too, but in the meantime if you want, you can try a version I built for bodhi 7 from an older ppa source:
