apt-get and red hat
I am new to linux (I'm solaris) and
I have been introduced to apt-get to check and upgrade packages.
I was told there is an option or form of the command to rebuild the kernel.
apt-get install kernel
Is this the form to upgrade the kernel, or you use
apt-get upgrade kernel
thanks

This script is the backend for the APT::Periodic::Unattended-Upgrade option and designed to be run from cron (e.g. via
/etc/cron.daily/apt).
OPTIONS

-h, --help
help output
-d, --debug
