WiFi won’t connect automatically after fresh ParrotSec 10 native OS install
Sometimes it connects but with noticed delay unlike Kernel 5.6.0 and I am having a delay also when installing packages using APT or when doing parrot-upgrade unlike what i had with kernel 5.6.0 so is there is away to go back for kernel 5.6 or a resolution for the issue ?

You can install multiple kernels via apt. After this, at the Grub boot menu select the secondary Kernel you would like to boot into :slight_smile:

Try out:

sudo apt install linux-image-5.6.0-2parrot1-amd64

Hi thanks
I have tried this but it says that there is not package with this name! I also tried to apt-cache any similar kernels but did not find any!

I am writing again to tell that I think kernel 5.6.0 has been removed from Parrot APT as it has reached EOF support, I figured this out after checking for kernel 5.5 and it is still available in the APT.

I solved the problem only by installing kernel 5.5.0 as a workaround till i get a solution or an explanation from the users or the parrot developers.

Thanks anyway.

where you find 5.5.0 kernel version? apt-cache show only 5.7 . i have problem with 5.7 . i want to install 5.6 or 5.5.

try sudo apt search linux-image-5.5*

this what I followed when I had issues with kernel 5.7 too and unfortunately 5.6 seems to be not available anymore due to EOF support.

try it and let me know if there’s anything
