Hello Linux Geeksters. As you may know, the Linux Kernel 3.10.4 has been recently released. It brings some improvements for IPv4 and IPv6 and some ARM drivers updates, since the previous version, the Kernel 3.10.3.
In this article I will show you how to install the Linux Kernel 3.10.4 on Ubuntu 13.10 Saucy Salamander, Ubuntu 13.04 Raring Ringtail, Ubuntu 12.10 Quantal Quetzal, 12.04 Precise Pangolin, Linux Mint 16 Petra, Linux Mint 15 Olivia, Linux Mint 14 Nadia, Linux Mint 13 Maya, Debian Jessie, Debian Sid, Debian Wheezy, Debian Squeeze, Deepin, Crunchbang OS, Knoppix, elementaryOS and many other Debian / Ubuntu based systems.
Because the kernel’s deb packages are available on kernel.ubuntu.com, we don’t have to compile anything from sources.
