- AnonCoward42 2y agoAs I said. It is technically possible, but it is relatively elaborated (for the provider of these patches). As far as I know you don't get them without having an online account at the provider of these patches. But the questions was: Does SerpentOS have the ability to change the kernel without reboot? Edit: > This will mean that the /lib/modules tree may not have the current kernel version, but the OS will still be usable while having had a live atomic update. Of course, to use the new kernel you must reboot. Unlike other atomic OS implementations, it will be up to you when you do so: no more deferred updates! https://serpentos.com/blog/2024/04/30/calm-before-the-storm/#live-atomic-updates-and-kernels https://serpentos.com/blog/2024/04/30/calm-before-the-storm/...
