Auto removed kernel, am I in trouble?

My system suggested I have a package to autoremove but when I did the autoremove command I go to warning the time about to delete the existing kernel and I didn’t read it fully so I clicked no thinking it was to cancel but I actually approved the deletion what should I do?

A new kernel version 6.12 should have been installed. You see it above. The message appears because new kernel 6.12 will be loaded on a reboot only. To be save, reboot first, before attempting to remove the old kernel 6.6

Hey, first off all, thanks for the prompt response and maintaining this awesome project, secondly… Uhhh, I already accidentally uninstalled it, what if I reboot and it doesn’t reboot?

usually it should reboot as the new kernel has been installed already. At least it reboots fine on a test system on my side :smiley:

btw, did you executed apt autoremove manually?

Yes, I executed manually and it is still running (I’m afraid to reboot)

Your choice :slight_smile:

I did reboot and all is good I think? sudo systemctl reboot

if your system boot up again, yes
