Hi Leann, As far as I understand the image package is just a single compressed file that I can easily test under a new entry in the grub menu, or even by editing the boot command line. If so, it seems easy enough, just tell me where to download this kernel and I will try it right away.
In any case, if it works, can I keep using the new kernel or is it maybe unstable/incompatible and I should better wait until 8.10? Thank you very much, Luis.
