Hello!
Did kernel should be updated during moving from latest OMV 5.x to the OMV 6.x using the command omv-release-upgrade. Mine does not, I am stuck with Linux 5.10.0-0.bpo.9-amd64. I am trying to install the nvidia driver for transcoding in Plex using below tutorial:
but I am getting some weird problems with mismatched kernel while installing nvidia driver?
Which kernel do you expect?
Which kernel do you expect?
Linked tutorial is mentioning about Kernel 5.16.0-0.bpo.4-amd64 on the author machine.
apt update then apt dist-upgrade.

Unfortunately it does not work for me. I am still on Linux 5.10.0-0.bpo.9-amd64. I have attached the complete log file (sorry, it is partially in Polish, I need to change it to English...).

Other question is why I don't have a menu entry Kernel in my System settings?
Edit:
I have fixed my Plugins issue (not displayed on the list), installed Kernel plugin and as you can see new kernel is also not available from here:

Not intentialy. Last day I messed up my grub, as far as I remember with some of the update command. There was a blue screen where I need to choose proper boot device and I've choosen the whole drive with my OMV partition (there was also the partition available to choose). From this time I was unable to boot properly to the system (grub rescue). I have managed to resolve this issue using below tutorial:
https://askubuntu.com/question…fter-ubuntu-19-10-upgrade
(the second answer in this thread, author yorch).
Some time ago I have moved my OMV system from HDD to SSD, the whole system drive (3 partitions).
You need to set your grub drive and /boot drive back to the same drive. This might involve changing the bios to boot from the proper drive.

So linked tutorial did not do the job?
# So we can run the next commands as `root`:
sudo su
# To figure which partition had my Xubuntu installation (partition type `Linux`)
# in my case it was `/dev/sda1`, we can use:
fdisk -l
# Let's mount a few things:
mount /dev/sda1 /mnt
mount --bind /dev /mnt/dev
mount --bind /dev/pts /mnt/dev/pts
mount --bind /proc /mnt/proc
mount --bind /sys /mnt/sys
chroot /mnt
# Now let's try to fix Grub:
grub-install /dev/sda# To change back chroot:
exit
# And now we can umount all:
umount /mnt/dev/pts
umount /mnt/dev
umount /mnt/proc
umount /mnt/sys
umount /mnt
# Now we can reboot:
rebootMy system boots without problems from this time.
My boot drive was sda, with one partition for OMV system, second for OMV backups and third for Docker containers & configurations.
That is the proper procedure from a rescue disk. If your system is booted, you can just run grub-install /dev/sdX then update-grub. Is /dev/sda the correct drive though? Is /boot on /dev/sda?
This is my grub boot selection:
And this is all my disks and partitions:
The sda is my main disk:
There are no any other disk or systems on this machine.
What is the output of:
ls -al /boot
sudo grub-install /dev/sda
sudo update-grub

Does not help. Still the same results.
