The upgrade was via the GUI update interface. (sudo apt update/upgrade) not actually the command line The GUI update appears daily to show the pending updates I have done and update since then and the Oracle kernel update is not in the update list, I assume that it has been pulled, or it no longer shows up because I have purged it. The update proceeded without any issues. THere are more pending updates as of last night. I havent applied tham as a have a big database import running, and I don't want to update until it's finished (couple of days) I will get the log information this afternoon. Have to wait till I can get to the server, ssh is blocked Cheers -------------------------------------------------------- Chris Martin m: +61 419 812 371 e:
