If it upgrades the Kernel, why is the kernel not automatically updated with sudo dnf upgrade? I haven't found an answer online anywhere. Thanks!
There's a warning not to manually edit the file, with the recommendation to use `u-boot-update`-- but I don't see a fedora package that provides that command?.
I'll hunt around a bit more, but I might just ignore the warning and edit it by hand anyways.
Same here. I didn't find any package that provides u-boot-update, there seems to be a uboot utils package, but that's it. I only managed to break my system as i tried to make a new initframs.
Right now im only thinking that whatever created this uboot setup for fedora was an external tool. I believe we need to look for instructions on how to generate a new u-boot setup, which in turns needs a new initframs with the new kernel.
Can someone point to instructions on how to do this?
