Reboot the machine and check the ‘hwe-support-status –verbose’ again, and there should be a response that your system is once again supported for the full LTS life.

You can also use apt-get install -install-recommends `hwe-support-status -show-replacements` -y The Ubuntu page lists the following command to bring a 14.04 server up to the proper kernel level: apt-get install -install-recommends linux-generic-lts-xenial To check if your system is affected, start with: hwe-support-status -verbose An an example, updating 14.04.5 to the v4.4 kernel does not mean that you will be forced into Systemd (which was not introduced until 15.04).

And remember, upgrading the kernel is not the same as upgrading the Ubuntu distribution. The good news is that this is not difficult, and can be done with a standard apt-get.

If you want to maintain support of a newer Ubuntu point release, you must update the kernel (server) and graphics stacks (if applicable), in order to maintain support until the 5-year EOL date of the LTS.

Referring to the support schedule above as an example, you can see that 14.04.3 was released with the Wily 15.04 Vivid HWE stack, and only supported for 12 months before requiring an upgrade to 14.04.5 and the Xenial 16.04 HWE. The reason why is that subsequent point releases ship with an updated kernel and X stack that require upgrade in order to maintain support. WARNING: Security updates for your current Hardware Enablement Stack ended on :Īlthough the first point releases of an Ubuntu version 12.04.0 and 12.04.1, 14.04.0 and 14.04.1, and 16.04.0 and 16.04.1 maintain support of their kernel version until the standard 5 year End-Of-Life for that long-term release (LTS), subsequent point releases do not hold the same schedule.

I haven't tried installing Ubuntu with a GUI (as I don't need one).If you installed (or upgraded to) a later Ubuntu point release: >= 12.04.2, >=14.04.2, or >=16.04.2, you may now be wondering why the system is warning you upon every login that you will no longer receive security updates. There may be a more elegant way to force a one-time boot in text mode through the boot-time grub menu, but I couldn't find one that worked (suggestions welcome!), hence I am documenting this solution, and hope it helps someone. # after successful booting into full Ubuntu system, do:Įcho "GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=text" | sudo tee -a /etc/default/grub # that's it, we can try booting into Ubuntu now

Sed -ir 's/(set linux_gfx_mode=).*/\1text/' grub.cfg # assuming your new ubuntu system is installed at /dev/sda1: (check with lsblk) In the end this worked for me: # boot with SystemRescueCD or similar, which gets to a prompt fine (unlike Ubuntu!) To boot successfully into Ubuntu Server after completing installation I needed to force it to boot in text mode, but this I found easier said than done.
