/boot: how do I change the current kernel?
Slackware 14.0

Hi:
I once changed the smp kernel running in my system by another one in /boot. What I did was to relink /boot/System.map, /boot/vmlinuz and /boot/config. But I don't remember if I did something else. Would that alone be OK.

NAME

       systemd-efi-boot-generator - Generator for automatically mounting the EFI System Partition used by the current boot to /boot

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/lib/systemd/system-generators/systemd-efi-boot-generator

DESCRIPTION

       systemd-efi-boot-generator is a generator that automatically creates mount and automount units for the EFI System Partition (ESP), mounting
       it to /boot. Note that this generator will execute no operation on non-EFI systems, on systems where the boot loader does not communicate
       the used ESP to the OS, on systems where /boot is an explicitly configured mount (for example, listed in fstab(5)) or where the /boot mount
       point is non-empty. Since this generator creates an automount unit, the mount will only be activated on-demand, when accessed.

       systemd-efi-boot-generator implements the generator specification[1].

SEE ALSO

       systemd(1), systemd.mount(5), systemd.automount(5), systemd-gpt-auto-generator(8), gummiboot(8), fstab(5)
