Where S The Kernel

• Check /boot
• We can find the Kernel we are using, it has to start with vmlinuz and an example is here: vmlinuz-6.5.0-21-generic.
• Confirm with uname -r
• The vmlinuz file is compressed.
• The vmlinuz file is loaded into memory by GRUB. GRUB will then transfer control to it.
• Do not delete this file.
