on debian/ubuntu-based distro. Update grub
to load the new kernel you specify.

(pickgeneric
unless you’re certain what you’re doing)apt install <linux kernel you've picked>
- Backup Grub:
cp /etc/default/grub /etc/default/grub.bak
- Set Grub to remember your choice of kernel:
vi /etc/default/grub
- Edit or enter the following:
