I am trying to build a custom cd using uck. Now, i want to upgrade the kernel, remove the old kernel and then create the iso. I am able to upgrade the kernel but I am not able to switch to the new kernel as I cannot reboot ( as its a chroot session).
Is it possible to switch to the new kernel and remove the old kernel?
In the ISO image, updating the Kernel will create problems with all packages related to that version of the kernel. It is like a waterfall effect. You change the kernel and any packages in your ISO that have relation with the old kernel might show problems when installing them.
In any case I also tried to upgrade the kernel, my case was 2.6.36 to 2.6.39. No luck there was no option for me at that time but for what I have checked here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/uck/+bug/664709 and here: https://answers.launchpad.net/uck/+question/96338 there has been work to accomplish this using some methods.
In all cases, the problems described in those links suggest that doing the upgrade like I mentioned will create other problems: Not booting, problems looking for packages, package managers having upgrade problems with the kernel, etc..
