How to find what is the kernel the system is booted...?

How to find what are all the kernels installed in my system now ???

Try the uname command, check the manpage for the options of this command.

Execute this

Code:

uname -a
rpm -q kernel*

First command will show the kernel version you are using right now and second will list installed versions along with a few other kernel packages.

Using dpkg command how to find ???

rpm command is not there in debian.

Execute this

Code:

dpkg -l kernel*

Try "dpkg -l kernel" and "dpkg -s kernel". If those don't work, then look at the manual for dpkg.

Or Try this

Code:

ls /boot/vmlinuz*
