Kernel

First off, what is kexec? - It is a system call that enables you to load and boot into another kernel from currently running kernel. That effectively means; doing reboot without going through the whole POST/Firmware load process. To use kexec we can rely on systemd to handle process for us. The only work we need to do is to install kexec-tools package and adjust some configs sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install kexec-tools Since Ubuntu usually relies on booting from grub we can tweak some settings to default to loading default grub kernel when we run kexec....
