In the Elrepo source of Yum, there are 2 kernel versions of M ain L ine (3.13.1), L ONG-T erm (3.10.28), so choose this version, considering that the long-term is more stable and will be updated for a long time.

2, install Elrepo to CentOS-6.5

3, installation kernel-lt (lt=long-term)

Yum--enablerepo=elrepo-kernel Install Kernel-lt-y

or install kernel-ml (ml=mainline)

Yum--enablerepo=elrepo-kernel Install Kernel-ml-y

Confirm the location of the newly installed kernel, then set the default value (starting from 0), generally the newly installed kernel is in the first position, so set default=0.

5. Reboot to see the kernel version number

uname -R3.10. 1. el6.elrepo.x86_64

CentOS 6.5 upgrade Kernel to 3.10.28
