Hello again. Thank You for your continuing help.
As I did before, I tried to load 5.11.0-20 but absolutely no luck. I found the
packages at ubuntu.paks(?).org but they locked me up totally. My system froze
halfway through the boot process. Tried it 3 times. Same result. I found some
more at the ubuntu kernel team site but after loading the kernel nothing showed
in grub-customizer or the grub boot menu. Synaptic shows it is loaded and so
does:
dpkg -l | tail -n +6 | grep -E 'linux-image-[0-9]+' | grep -Fv $(uname -r)
rc linux-image-5.11.0-20-generic 5.11.0-20.21~20.04.1
amd64 Signed kernel image generic
rc linux-image-5.8.0-43-generic 5.8.0-43.49~20.04.1
amd64 Signed kernel image generic
rc linux-image-5.8.0-55-generic 5.8.0-55.62~20.04.1
amd64 Signed kernel image generic
ii linux-image-5.8.0-56-generic 5.8.0-56.63~20.04.1
amd64 Signed kernel image generic
ii linux-image-5.8.0-57-generic 5.8.0-57.64~20.04.1
amd64 Signed kernel image generic
5.11.0-20 does not show on any menu. My best guess is possibly
dependency issues.
Can I try a later kernel? I am using LTS 20.04 and not 21.04 which may
be required.
Another option is for me is to pop in another ssd and try another
distro. Would that work?
Thank You again . . .
