Kernel Upgrade

Can you not install multiple kernels in mint and select them from grub?

i am not a fan of Mint, but if they seriously dropped support for multiple kernel selection from Grub when they forked, I will go out of my way to burn that Distro to the ground..:wtf:
 
You can just select the old kernel at boot time if the new one is broken for some reason. You can do this by holding the shift key right after power on but i've found this to be unreliable.

Sure fire way is the following.

Code: 
sudo nano /etc/default/grub
Comment out the line below with a # to make Mint always display the grub menu at boot time.
Code: 
#GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0
"Ctrl + X" "Y" "Enter" to exit
Code: 
sudo update-grub
Code: 
sudo reboot
