apt apt install linux-image-generic fails to install kernel and boot files after 2nd time?
by finalturismo from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5NY0E)
So iam a Gentoo user here and things are a bit different for me in general but iam using Ubuntu server and i have a question. So the first time i install the kernel image on ubuntu with the following command
Code:apt install linux-image-genericThe kernel files, systemmap, initramfs and grub menu are all automatically generated and i can boot right into linux.
But if i use apt remove and remove the linux-image-generic package and i run the apt install linux-image-generic command again this does not happen.
What do i need to do to force apt install to install the exsact same way as the first time.
Note: ive tried
Code:apt install linux-image-generic --reinstallThis does not repeat the same process as the first install....
Any ideas guys? iam not too familiar with apt package manager.
