Only install the linux-image-amd64 package. It always depends on the latest version.

@golinux and GlennW

Thanks for the warning, as I was already looking at Debian packages.

I looked at the link, and the packages (https://pkginfo.devuan.org/), but my eyes glazed over at all of the rt, dbg, cloud, etc., images and headers. I'll have more tea and look again.

just chimaera-backports...

deb http://deb.devuan.org/merged/ chimaera-backports main non-free contrib

Beowulf

deb http://deb.devuan.org/merged/ beowulf-backports main non-free contrib

I remember when odd-numbered kernel versions were unstable.

Thanks for that. I've never used Debian backports. I guess I just add "deb http://deb.debian.org/debian bullseye-backports main" to sources.list.

It is never a good idea to use Debian repositories directly. All "safe" Debian packages are available through the Devuan repositories at deb.devuan.org. You might want to have a look at this page.

@Head_on_a_Stick

So the philosophy for Devuan (and Debian, I assume) is to release one kernel with the original release? That explains why the only available kernel is 5.10.

That kernel version will never be available for the current stable release. The kernel only gets backported security & bug fixes after the release, no (major) version bumps are provided.

I'm using 5.18 from bpo (backports)

linux-image-5.18.0-0.bpo.1-amd64-unsigned_5.18.2-1~bpo11+1_amd64.deb
