Newest kernel 3.13.0-33 causes boot problems

rated 0 times [ 4] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 1540 / 3 Years ago, tue, july 27, 2021, 10:11:42

I just installed the newest kernel 3.13.0-33 and after a reboot the computer won't boot further than the plymouth screen. Normally, the mouse cursor would apear and my second monitor would show that it has a signal, but neither happened with the new kernel.

I managed to select the last kernel version 3.13.0-32 in grub so I could boot again.

Is there a way to remove the newly installed kernel or to select 3.13.0-32 as the default one so I don't have to select it everytime I boot? Do you have an idea why it doesn't work?

Open Terminal and Type :- dpkg --list | grep linux-image After this It will show all linux kernels installed in your system.

Now type :- sudo apt-get purge linux-image-x.x.x.x-generic Replace x.x.x.- With the kernel you want to remove

eg:-

 sudo apt-get purge linux-image-3.13.0-33-generic

After Deleting kernel Type :- sudo update-grub and reboot
