UkTools - UkUpgrade/UkPurge

UkUpgrade stands for "Ubuntu Kernel Upgrade"

It provides us to upgrade linux kernel to latest stable version for Ubuntu/Mint and derivatives. Based on this archive UkPurge stands for "Ubuntu Kernel Purge"

It provide to us remove old linux kernel images/headers in machine for Ubuntu/ Mint and derivatives. Non-Based Auto Run If you set auto run in setup, upgrade will be done automatically by cronjob each 2hours.

Code Auto Update [Disable by default], can be enabled/disabled in setup

This repo implement auto-update, which means that it'll automatically get last available github's version when using "normal setup"

You can implement this feature in your project with https://github.com/usbkey9/autoup/

Disclaimer

Linux Tools (perf, usb over ether, kbuild) are not available with lastest kernel's versions so, if you need them, use regular kernels
