it was refreshed for me with the question below
without such idiotic changes this sort of problems
would simply not exist and people would learn to
use their OS instead obfuscate all options from
the users like windows

Betreff: [CentOS] How to boot into a different kernel

CentOS Community,

Is there a command to boot into a different version of the kernel? I
believe this is setup via grub.conf but unsure. There are a few
different kernels loaded into /boot but I want to see if there is a
command to boot into a different kernel as a single instance or
permanent if needed. Please advise
