What is the procedure to replace the kernel in antiX-13.2-Stable-Live with the PAE version?

Is it replace in /antiXlive/antiX/
initrd.gz
initrd.gz.md5
vmlinuz
vmlinuz.md5

Optionally edit
/antiXlive/boot/grub/menu.lst

Reboot

Is there a tool or script in antiX-Live that automates the process? As an infrequent user of live mode I may have missed it.

Following the guidance by anticapitalista in the referenced link does not produce a working outcome.

Has the procedure changed since the time of that post approximately 2 years and 8 months ago?

Results obtained using the following boot parameters

Code: Select all

desktop=space-icewm lang=en_GB quiet persist=root!,home antiX=MLX
cannot find linuxfs file antiX/linuxfs

Code: Select all

desktop=space-icewm lang=en_GB quiet persist=root!,home antiX=MLX bdir=antiX
cannot find linuxfs file antiX/linuxfs

Code: Select all

desktop=space-icewm lang=en_GB quiet persist=root!,home antiX=MLX bdir=antiXlive
No device with bootlabel=antiXlive found


Reverting to the shipped kernel and using default parameters for root+home persistence restores expected operation.
