How can I update the kernel on my lightsail server
I received the following error message:
Kernel Security Notice mail.xyz.com The new kernel is available Please update your kernel as soon as you can to keep your system secure. This will require a server reboot.
Does anyone know the exact steps to complete this?

sudo apt-get install linux-image-$(uname -r)
sudo reboot
uname -r
Thanks for this information, however, I can imagine I’d type this somewhere, but I don’t have a clue as to where, how, or format. I “rent” the server here for this reason- I don’t want to manage, or repair a server.
I’m told that a kernel update is my responsibility- so, I have to try. I would need “baby steps “ if you don’t mind. And confidence that the process would work and it would boot back up without a hitch.At first yes you are responsible for the security and keeping your instances updated/patched.
Since for EC2 and lightsail AWS just provides you with the infrastructure, the operation is upon you.
Note: before starting such operations please take a snapshot of your instance
Then connect the instance through the SSH

then execute the above commands
