Hi guys, I've followed the instructions at https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Upgrade_from_5.x_to_6.0#In-place_upgrade and brought myself up all the way from version 4 to version 6. However, like the title says, my web GUI and shell are showing different version numbers.

Here's whats at the top of my web GUI:
version6-3.png

When I log in using SSH the message at the top says:

Code:
Using username "root".
Linux vmhost01 5.4.78-2-pve #1 SMP PVE 5.4.78-2 (Thu, 03 Dec 2020 14:26:17 +0100) x86_64


When I run apt update I see:
Code:

Is there a step I've missed, or have I misunderstood the update process?
 
Thanks mate, so considering I've already followed every step in the upgrade from 5 to 6 instructions; including rebooting, and apt update as well as apt dist-upgrade are showing no further updates, what are my next steps to upgrade my kernel?
 
That already should be the latest kernel. PVE 6.3 is using "Kernel 5.4 LTS".
