Heinz,

I'm trying to pick up the kernel update using the -proposed method at
the URL you provided.

I added this line to the sources.list ...

root@zm93k8:/home/scottg# grep proposed /etc/apt/sources.list
deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports xenial-proposed restricted main 
multiverse universe

Created proposed-updates file ...

root@zm93k8:/home/scottg# cat /etc/apt/preferences.d/proposed-updates
Package: *
Pin: release a=xenial-proposed
Pin-Priority: 400

The simulated update doesn't show any available updates (as expected /
desired):

root@zm93k8:/home/scottg# sudo apt-get upgrade -s
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Calculating upgrade... Done
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

However, I can't figure out how to actually install the specific kernel
package ... I tried a simulation and I get:

root@zm93k8:/home/scottg# sudo apt-get install 
Ubuntu-4.4.0-98.121/xenial-proposed -s
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package Ubuntu-4.4.0-98.121
E: Couldn't find any package by glob 'Ubuntu-4.4.0-98.121'
E: Couldn't find any package by regex 'Ubuntu-4.4.0-98.121'
root@zm93k8:/home/scottg#

Do I have incorrect syntax?  Incorrect package name?  Not sure why I'm
not finding the update.

Note, I also had to comment out these URLs to prevent from finding
updates:

#deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ xenial main restricted universe multiverse
#deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ xenial-updates main restricted universe multiverse
#deb http://ports.ubuntu.com/ xenial-security main universe

This is unfamiliar territory... thanks for your help.
