In 5.4 after compiling a new kernel you have the default boot location being /boot/kernel/ directory containing the current newly compiled kernel and /boot/kernel.old/ directory containing the generic system. For safeguard I do mkdir /boot/kernel.generic cp -Rfv /boot/kernel.old/ /boot/kernel.generic/ Now my question, At the beastie boot menu I select option 6 for boot prompt, What do I enter to load from /boot/kernel.generic/ directory??
