pve7to8 warning about "a suitable kernel is intalled, but an unsuitable..."

[Kunou]

I want to upgrade to Proxmox 8, but this

pve7to8

command throws me a warning:

"WARN: a suitable kernel (pve-kernel-5.15) is intalled, but an unsuitable (5.19.17-2-pve) is booted, missing reboot?!"

I'm afraid to try to upgrade if I have this warning.

If you're wondering, I've had another kernel installed because my Chinese mini PC would have random VMs crashing, but 5.19.17-2-pve minimized the crashes to almost none.

kernel 5.19 has not been getting updates, so it's no longer secure (same for the 6.1 version). You can try the optional 6.2 kernel for Proxmox 7.4 (with is also used by Proxmox 8) to see how it works for you before upgrading your Proxmox.

Ah, I should've thought of that. Thank you!
