[SOLVED] What is the correct process to update?

Copying this from: #24

Hi,

I am using 5.15.39-3-pve-relaxablermrr successfully. I now would like to update to the latest kernel. What is the right sequence to >update?

My assumption would be:

install 5.19.7-2 kernel
install patch for 5.19.7-2 kernel
pin this kernel version (change the current pinning)
reboot

Am I correctly assuming?

Answer:

You can simply grab the latest patched kernel debs released which is for your version of Proxmox/Debian and install them as directed here: https://github.com/Aterfax/relax-intel-rmrr/blob/master/README.md#proxmox---premade-packages-easy

If you are concerned about reboots on a new unpatched kernel you should pin the latest patched one you have installed: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Host_Bootloader#sysboot_kernel_pin

e.g. If the normal Proxmox kernel is more modern than your installed patched version and you want to continue to boot the older patched kernel, you should pin it.

Reboot.

Note:
If the most recent release isn't recent enough for your requirements, automatic builds are compiled each weekend.

You can see the latest automated build at https://github.com/Aterfax/relax-intel-rmrr/actions/workflows/build-kernel-debs.yml and can click on a specific build:

Then you can click to download the zip artifact from the artifacts tab. Each build artifact contains all of the .deb files needed for installation.
