Re: booting another kernel from console

[mohanlal jangir <mohanlal@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

"ln -s <new image> vmlinuz"  ;-) (assuming new image is in /boot partition)
But I don't think, this is a good idea, because new image becomes default
kernel and in case it does not boot, you have to boot in some other kernel
to fix.
